No. You are specifically prohibited from doing anything to interfere with the
operation of another vehicle:

=======================================

Competition

The goal of this competition is for the challenge vehicle to demonstrate
intelligent autonomous behavior and complete the route as quickly as
possible. Interfering with other challenge vehicles will not be allowed. The
following will result in the disqualification of a contestant:

     o Intentionally interfering with competing challenge or safety vehicles
     o Intentionally interfering with competing operators
     o Intentionally interfering, spoofing, jamming, or disturbing
communications used by competitors or the challenge organizers
     o Intentionally altering the terrain with the purpose of making it more
difficult for competitors

========================================

BTW, I presume you saw that the prize was a million dollars, should you win.
