With the recent addition of racing many questions have come up. One of the biggest concerns the lack of a jump drive on the known dedicated racing ships. With racing taking place in multiple systems across the verse in the PU how will the M50, Mustang, and 350R owners get their racer from one system to another?asked by Azazel
TL;DRRoberts says the 350R and Mustang could get jump drives while the M50 is likely too small, so racers would be carried in transporter ships or hired out.
Okay, well, so certain things - the 350r definitely will be able to have a jump drive... the Mustang also, like the Aurora, would be able to have sort of an upgraded jump drive. The M50 is pretty small, so it's likely not necessarily to have a jump drive. But we're gonna also have-... you know, that's kinda the idea of why you'd have bigger ships. So if you think about racing in today's world of people who go around racing, they have big 18-wheelers that they put their race cars in the back, and drive around the country. Or even in the case of high-end stuff like Formula 1 they put them on planes and fly them around. So we'll definitely have transporter ships that you'll be able to take your smaller, something like an M50, in. For instance if you have an 890 JUMP and you're cruising around in style in the universe, you could have an M50 sitting in the cargo bay and race it in various races... you know... just like the super rich do in today's world!So, we'll definitely have ships that can transport them around, or if you didn't have a ship that you want to do that you could probably hire someone to transport your ship to the next race location.
