Humanitarian Aid Garners Good Karma For the Winner!
Four ships blasted off from Terra to start the race.
John, Steve, and Den set course toward Mercury. They planned to complete the round trip course via Mercury, Venus, Mars and back to Terra. Terry was the only pilot to plot a course to Mars with hopes of taking the Mars, Venus, Mercury, and then Terra route.
John Dropped medical supplies at Mercury and gained bonus racing points. John, Steve, and Den pushed their ships while trying to out maneuver one another. While on the long run to Mars, Terry handled his ship conservatively.
Terry placed supplies for miners in orbit around Mars. Unfortunately the explosives included in the supplies were live. Because of the hazard he created, Terry did not receive bonus points. Fortunately, John, Steve, and Den were able to avoid the “explosives” that look suspiciously like a mine orbiting Mars.
John lead most of the race. He ran an almost perfect race including a successful humanitarian drop. As a result he won!
