is it realy a good idea to be sending serco/itani through eachothers space? i can understand if you want def bots to be a hazzard but this will give NT pilots a huge advantage.

Thats true silentsuicide, but this is more of an adventure race... Its gotta be dangerous, otherwise it boring...

High Stakes
High Reward

Don't be scured...
