Racing had always been popular with the kids, however the Thargoid war severely supressed this behaviour at first. Nowadays however most kids don't even remember that there was a time when Thargoids were just a legend. This blasé attitude of youngsters has lead to a revived thrill-seeking culture. Sun-diving and harrassing Hognose pilots, are the 'tame' activities of pubescent boyracer owners.

Not all racers choose (or have the funds for) the shiny new racer models, many tinker in local ship-workshops on the old decrepid corpses of Adders and Mambas, turning them into LM-devouring deathtraps.


Racing is once again big-business!

Manufacturers turn out new racer models, like the Criba, by the dozens. Magazines like What Spaceship ? and LightSpeed! regularly publish DIY articles on custom modifications and bestbuy comparisons of the new model racers.
