Subject: New York Race proposition

Greetings everyone,

I would like to organize Race event in New York system called New York Race. Everyone would be welcome, although I think Liberty police wouldnt be very happy from pirates.

Race course:

Start: Newark Station
1st Circle: Manhattan West Point, West Point Norfolk, Norfolk Fork Bush, Fort Bush Manhattan
2nd Circle: Manhattan West Point, West Point Norfolk, Norfolk Fork Bush, Fort Bush Manhattan
End: Manhattan Docking ring

Details:

Start point: Racers will be aligned along side of Newark station (Graphical details will be provided if race will be organized).
End point: Final line is Docking ring, because it works on 1st come, 1st serve basis and will be judge of who is first. Dont forget that you can enter docking ring queue from almost 1 kilometer, there is no need to fly close to it.

Rules:

1. Winner will receive 3 000 000 credits + all entry fees, 2nd will get 1 500 000 credits, 3rd 500 000 credits, 4th 100 000 credits, no other place will be awarded.
   
2. Entry fee is 100 000 Credits
   
3. Destroying other racers during race is not allowed and will get you disqualified.
   
4. Using cruise disruptors and countermeasures is allowed.
   
5. Using weapons and mines is not forbidden, but is limited by rule nr. 3.
   
6. Trade lanes pre-set speed is setting hardwired minimum time of each circle, anyone completing race in time less then this will be disqualified.
   
7. Race has only one checkpoint at Manhattan, note that you have to pass this checkpoint to enter 2nd circle. This pass is also affected by rule nr. 6.
   
8. Any racer approaching Manhattan during race on vector over 45 degrees different of Fort Bush Manhattan Trade Lane will be disqualified. This counts until you pass last working trade ring of Fort Bush Manhattan lane. For example if last ring doesnt work and you drop before it, you can immediately set course for next objective. But if you somehow come to Manhattan from Detroit Munitions trade lane, you are out of the race.
   

Cruise engines are allowed and recommended. The race will test your skill in fast docking with trade lanes and orientation in space as well as handling unpredictable situations like disruptions of trade lane system. You are allowed to disrupt cruise engines of other racers and they can do it to you.Collisions are NOT forbidden, but if you collide so hard that it will cost someones life you will be disqualified. Having a team mate on track, who shall resupply you with nanobots, shield batteries, countermeasures and disruptor rockets is also allowed. Taking someone elses supplies is not considered cheating.

This is only proposition to find out if there would be someone interested at all. And if yes to open discussion about rules if you find some of them not so good.

Please feel free to contact me on this channel with questions, comments, upgrades, anything that you think might contribute to this event.
