will there be mandatory information taken from ship, ie. weapons, batteries, turrets, people in turrets.

wish i could make it, would be really fun to do in atlas x with a gunner, but vo doesnt work anymore :( but dont worry about me! have fun and good luck with the broadcast!

I guess I should, seeing how much work has been listed on the wiki with past runs, and how I'm picking up with 113 from the last run listed there.

So yes, I will collect ship and loadout info and write it in my handy dandy notebook and put it on the wiki after the race.

Is switching out ships in the middle of the race allowed?
Are there weapon restrictions?
Will pirates receive 3rd/2nd/1st prizes for killing the participants as they have in past runs?

hmmm.... shall i come for old times sakes...
Jul 22, 2011 lazypc link
Keeping it as simple as possible for now, I have to DJ too ;).
No restrictions on changing out ships or weapons or gunner partners.
No prizes for pirates killing racers, and no prizes for killing pirates, both sides act on their own accord, or in accordance with an obligation between then and the racer.

Things may change as this race and others like it become a regular event. And anyone who is familiar with the past races is welcome to give me a history lesson on how they were ran, and what made things fair and possible to track.

Breazle your more then welcome to come for old times sake. Nahin Lor has registered and is thinking of doing the same. :)

Thanks to all the racers and listeners for participating today. Hopefully today was the start of something to keep around for awhile.

Official Results:
Maxx Metal 1st Place
Ipslet 2nd Place
Breazle 3rd Place

Times are unknown (I apologize) Will fix this and some other kinks as we go along.

Also thanks to Mulle Barap [PA] for helping with betting and being flexible with the late entries.

Shit, I missed it!
Jul 30, 2011 tarenty link
How many entries were there?
Jul 31, 2011 Breazle link
Thanks for hosting I have basic times here:

Maxx Metal: 28.13

Ipslet/Breazle: 29.01

Ipslet would have been slightly before me since he came second but he wasnt in my group so dont have logs. We were both in M-14 together though so close enough.

2 seconds before i docked arf died meters away from the docking bay so that would have been close.

Streusel was very close he also wasn't in my group so not sure what happened there

Thanks for the times Breazle.

We had a total of 12 Racers at the race, a very good turn out I believe.

I received the infamous Streusel is having issues message and he did confirm death by asteroid...

That being said it looked like enough flares hit Arf at the dock to cause that whole side of the station to explode (had it been possible)

But thanks to everyone no matter what the role for making it an exciting race.
