OVERVIEW


In the not so distant past, a Freelancer won the space race in Provence, showing both Spa & Cruise and the Starfliers that there are other pilots who can squeeze out more speed than themselves. Being bitter over this, and refusing to give up on finding out who is the best between them, a new challenge was issued against Spa & Cruise. The new track chosen was one located nearby Planet Erie. Interspace was happy to host the event, calling it a breath of fresh air as their track was mostly used to train new recruits. Whilst setting up the event at the Flight School, racers and trainees were commenting on a random Junker loitering about. Calling them garbage and that they should fly a real track. This stopped the pilots from flying, feeling discouraged from it all. However the Starfliers took the Junker's bait. Now flying in orbit of Sayre, they call Spa & Cruise out to the outskirts of Pennsylvania. Telling them that this is it, this race will determine who is the best between them.

The local Junkers help setup their event beside Allentown, and with this they decide to watch the chaos unfold. Word of mouth spreads from Pennsylvania to the other Junker groups across Sirius, eventually bringing an unusual group of racers, betters and spectators alike. The Starfliers remain headstrong after their failure to come first in Provence, Spa & Cruise drum up their own trash-talking game to deter the competition. Racers of other backgrounds and affiliations are also welcome to go against the mainlining groups alongside any daring Junkers... provided they don't get cheeky and start ramming or shooting.

May the fastest racer win.

I have setup an After Effects project file with a count-up timer expression.
Will be downloading video submissions, then timing each within the AE file for standardized timings to get placings.


FIRST PLACE
  • Yui Kusaka | 01 m 56 s 50 ms
SECOND PLACE
  • Dietrich von Bohn | 01 m 56 s 67 ms
THIRD PLACE
  • Halpert Kennedy | 01 m 56 s 78 ms

May the fastest racer win!

Placings are updated.

Things are getting quite interesting! The placings are getting milliseconds apart!

Still have 3 days left of the event!
