Freelance Report: Old Worlds Zero-Gravity Rally

Starport personnel across the Lave cluster are preparing for an increase in traffic, as pilots from the Buckyball Racing Club and the Elite Racers compete in their latest event. The ‘Old World Hustle’, which combines point-to-point rallies and zero-gravity aerobatics, runs from the 11th to the 19th of June 3302.

Despite being held in low esteem by authorities, both the Buckyball Racing Club and the Elite Racers are privately acknowledged as providing a boost to commerce in systems where their events take place, particularly by the proprietors of station bars and the purveyors of outfitting services.

“Insurance claims are good for business,” said a salesman at the Lave Station shipyard, before hastily adding “although of course a pilot’s safety is our primary concern.”
