Will players who focus on racing be able to achieve some sort of sponsorship with other in-fiction companies and be able to fly those names similar to what NASCAR racers do today?asked by The Arcfade

TL;DRA racing series with qualifiers, championships and prizes is definitely planned, while sponsorship deals are only an idea being kicked around and perhaps something they'll do.

Well, I definitely want players to be able to focus on things like racing or doing other stuff. So we're gonna definitely have a whole racing series that will happen and exist in fiction, where there will be qualifiers a championship, and the people who are the best racers will be sort of covered, and lauded, and win prizes just like they do in the real world. So we're gonna do that. The idea of sponsorship is pretty cool - we've actually been kicking around the idea of sponsorship for some of the ships, so maybe we can sort of weave that into the fiction, because again that's another thing that makes it seem more real.But at the very least you certainly will be able to compete and, you know, have fame against all the other players that are in the Star Citizen universe, and be covered on the news report as being "the Murray Cup champion of 2945" and all the rest of the stuff. And perhaps we'll do some fun stuff like sponsorship deals.
