I suppose you'd know a bit more about it then I would. My only reference for a car steering bot is Onslaught, and that looked pretty grippy if maybe not as ridiculously fast as you're thinking

paid DLC and microtransations can both go straight to hell. One is a devilish paywall in terms of multiplayer and can mess up modding, the other is a complete and total cancer that should stay contained in the nurglesque dimension that is mobile gaming.

The former would be acceptable if this was call of battlefield 3: modern black-ops, but it isn't. It's our charming little bargain bin game given another shot at life. The modding scene should override any free DLC in any case. That should be the selling point.

Come on man free DLC is literally just update patches, there's nothing wrong with that, in fact paid DLC as long as it's worth it is fine too and won't damage modding at all as long as it's done correctly (See Bethesda games and Cities : Skylines)

Should there perhaps be a thread separate from this one to contain discussion of robot arena 3, so that updates aren't drowned out?

all of those games are AAA and single-player only. DLC in a lower-end production game like RA3 is completely unacceptable, especially with how it could affect online multiplayer and the potential modding scene.

In multiplayer games like RA3, paid functional DLC like maps/parts is truly harmful, but paid cosmetic DLC is totally fine since it doesn't affect the game.

And what would be the point of that, exactly?  Paying for reskins or decorations would just be a direct downgrade from RA2's free reskins and decorations.
How you make Alarm Clock Pizza is:
Step 1: You buy an alarm clock from the store, and then you have to break it and put it in the sauce.
Step 2: Fold the sauce in 5 slices and put it in the dough.
Step 3: Paint the eggs with a pitcher of a clock showing what time you want to wake up and eat pizza for breakfast.
Step 4: Put the eggs in the dough.
Step 5: Make it flat into a round shape and draw the time you want on it.
Step 6: Put some old steel to prevent other peple from stealing it.
Step 7: Make it flat and cut into 60 slices 1 for each minute in 1 our.
Step 8: Put in the oven set the timer to 30048813.2884 seconds and put the temperature on 'Volcano' setting.
Step 9: If you think it is take to long, then get yor alarm clock and set it to now so that it will ring and you can take it out.
Step 10: Take it out uv the uvin wen it is redy and go to bed. In the morning eat pizza and also eat yor hands bi mistake.

IMO the only DLC I could see them justifying is officially licensed Battlebots/Robot Wars replicas but even that's  pushing it.
