Should just have a CD, police interceptors would be mental

It is about the same size as a Stargazer. No real advantage is there? Looks cool but should only be used in events. Why the screen? Also can the suit handle radiation for very long? And he doesn't have a Pee-Pod.

Just make it a LF, I'll take 10 please!

Interesting concept, but there is not really a purpose of the pilot being exposed, is there? If it was for weight reduction there is an awful lot of extra stuff on there, like the findshield for example. I also think the acceleration of that thing would be too much for a human to hold on to. In that case a fully enclosed, minimalistic ship that is pretty much only engines and a pilot would be more practical - and that's pretty much an Arrow.

Then again, I doubt you'd want to be exposed to radiation with little more than a space suit to protect you in the first place!Not like real-life astronauts/cosmonauts don't already do that!
To be fair, I do agree about them needing at least some sort of shield if implemented, but in my opinion, LF could already serve such racing purposes (and make more sense while at it too).

I'd like to see this as the fastest ship class ingame but a considerable amount with a CD maybe 1-2guns Shield or no shield doesn't matter Simply to act as an awesome police only interceptor

Did anything ever come of this? I feel we could use some space biker wars. Imagine the races!
Also...imagine being a police interceptor with one of these. Or a military scout.
Also when it comes to the pilot, a shield is the saving grace. Without one they should smash into asteroids almost instantly. That would make races pretty interesting. A subspace (anti gravity) field takes care of intertia to a reasonable degree. I always figured such tech was in use in every ship. The pilots would be fine.
Anyways, drop these in, we can set it all aside for space biker wars.
