Interesting Notes
-----------------
1. Thanks to Miharu for awarding a 500k prize for 4th place.

2. Apparently skill still beats technology, as Mick flew a non-infiniboost Vulture MkIII to victory, posting a very impressive sub-30 minute time.

3. LeberMac once again earns sponsorship money from TGFT (something he did previously in The Deneb Runs #3 and #5).

Thanks you should update the google cal. It says 3pm edt.
