| A new Horizon in entertainment (Posted by Seif Keilani on Year 10 Day 331) |

Over the past few months a small project had been put into place to form an organised racing league that would span many different forms of racing, from pod racing amongst raging volcanoes to epic journeys through the depths of space and beyond. After some initial interest from people, sustained contact was unfortunately lost. Though the first race had everything in position, rules and regulations wise, there was a severe lack of sentients that were crazy, or talented enough to try it.
However, the time has come to open the doors to the galaxy, and see if there are more daring rogues and dashing military officers out there that are looking to show off. A time has been set for Year 11 Day X (Dec 1st) for the race to open. Due to varying conditions both on and off the track, the race will not be a typical circuit race - it will instead be a time-trial race with three laps being performed separately over a week and the times combined for a final time. Full rules will be made available in other sources.

For those of you that are wondering about the rather large time delay between revealing this race and it starting, it is because of one very good reason: the race will take place on a planet in the far Outer Rim. Racing will cover the surface of Torize, a planet in the Qu`mock system in the Kathol sector. This should give people enough time to obtain permission to join this race, and actually get to the start line in time. Racing will be entirely on the planet's surface since the race will be using pod racers and swoops. Personal vehicles are preferred, but there are several vehicles we can offer for those that do not own one. However this will be a first-come, first-served offer. These are already in position for the race.
There will be prizes for the top three racers, and these will be listed with the rules. However it will be in excess of 500k, and most likely more. Anyone wishing to race will have to pay an entry fee of 100k credits, payable in either credits or Nova Crystals. Members of the Galactic Alliance can enter for free. Imperial Union members are not prohibited from entering, nor will they receive a higher entry fee. Entry fees will be applied to the prize pool. Additionally, if there is a significant number of entries there may be a split in categories with prizes for the top three pod racers and top three swoops.
And finally, Horizon Racing is sponsored by the InterGalactic Banking Clan and is proud to be affiliated with the Krath. |
