17th Corporate Sectors Run

Jun 10, 2006 Screwball link
Welcome to the Corporate Sectors Run, reborn. This is a shorter, more fast paced race as compared to the Deneb Run. This race takes place on Saturdays at 5pm and 9pm EDT (9pm GMT and 1am Sunday GMT), alternating with the Deneb Run. So if the Deneb Run is using the earlier timeslot, the CSR uses the later timeslot, and vice versa.

Once again, the rules are:

1) Racers must race from Odia M14 through Ukari, Union space and Edras, ending back in Odia M-14. Refer to the map if you have any questions. http://makchuga.tejat.net/uploads/CSRracemap.png

2) Race starts in Odia M14 near the station.

3) Contestants must be within 300m of me before the start

4) No shooting before I start the race.

5) You die and you're out (so no /exploding)

6) First person to get back and dock at Odia M14 wins the first prize. (1 million credits)

7) Second person back gets 2nd place prize (600k credits)

8) Third person back gets 3rd place prize (400k credits)

9) All ships setups are allowed.

10) Docking along the way to repair is allowed.

11) Imitating or impersonating the MC in any way is grounds for disqualification, as it delays the race unnecessarily. This includes, but is not limited to: Imitating the starting signals (firing of an AGT or saying "Go")

12) No Valkyries allowed

Also, an additional 500k goes to the first person who can break the current record. So 1st place can potentially get you 1.5 million credits!

Aaannd... Mick bumps himself out of the 4th record position by taking over 3rd, despite the fact that Valkyries were re-banned as of this week.
