The "criterium" races are always most popular with the crowds, who will stand for hours, watching the groups of speeders circle, jockeying for position as they speed past the pylons. When racers want to settle scores among themselves, they always turn to the time trials, a mixture of obstacle course and shooting gallery that challenges every skill a pilot can develop. | The "criterium" races are always most popular with the crowds, who will stand for hours, watching the groups of speeders circle, jockeying for position as they speed past the pylons.

It's a rough life. You spend most of your time in space transports, traveling from venue to venue, but when you see the racing course you realize that it is all worth it. | It's a rough life.

You can fly and you can shoot. You're not the best at either - no speeder racer is - but you could well be the best at both, if your blasters stay hot, and your speeder keeps dodging the poles. | You can fly and you can shoot.

Equipment: Racing airspeeder (maneuverability 3D, move 140; 400kmh, body strength 2D, 2 stun blasters (fire control 1D, damage 2D stun)), blaster pistol (4D), flight suit, crash vest (+1 energy, +1D physical), crash helmet (+1 energy, +1D physical), 500 credits.
Background: Swoop racing is for adolescents; star rallies are playgrounds for dilettantes: but the real racing - where the action is most exciting - is speeder racing. Only the best belong here. That's you.
The "criterium" races are always most popular with the crowds, who will stand for hours, watching the groups of speeders circle, jockeying for position as they speed past the pylons. When racers want to settle scores among themselves, they always turn to the time trials, a mixture of obstacle course and shooting gallery that challenges every skill a pilot can develop. It's a rough life. You spend most of your time in space transports, traveling from venue to venue, but when you see the racing course you realize that it is all worth it. You can fly and you can shoot. You're not the best at either - no speeder racer is - but you could well be the best at both, if your blasters stay hot, and your speeder keeps dodging the poles.
Personality: You're quiet and level-headed, more interested in improving yourself and your equipment than in bragging. You're good at what you do - bad speeder racers end up as wet smudges on a canyon wall - but there is no call to brag. Your actions speak for themselves.
Objectives: To gain fame and respect among the other speeder racers, and to find a sponsor with deep pockets.
