I don't think so. Here's why:
- Wifi probably won't be available at the events. You'd have to have your own.
- Wireless communication is a no-no, unless you are on the field and using the competition radios.
- It would be a custom circuit...which makes it a slave to the RC (See Section 8 for details), and the RC isn't taking input when it's disabled.
Try a robot cart; that'll get the robot back to the pit just fine. (And it's unquestionably legal.)
