thanks, Gil

I'd love to see what you could produce as an F1 starcraft!   I'd been
sitting on the idea of revising the design for next years model how I would
improve on this years, but while watching the Indy 500 it hit me that I
didn't have to do the redesign yet but could make a racing version of the
same craft I made a few months ago.  If you look at it you'll see the design
is essentially the same as a current Indy car style minus the canopy and
lack of wheels and spoilers (which starcraft are in no need of.)

Personally I'd love to see a whole lineup of F1 styled starcraft built
within a certain standard (loosely for creative purposes.)  It would seem to
be a great way of getting some of the .space builders to let go of the idea
that all space vehicles are for military purposes.

thanks again.

Zenith production model

The already speed oreinted design of the Zenith's powerhouse has been
modified with our newly developed triple hyperthrust propulsion system.

The already ample dual antigravity units powering the original have been
replaced with 6 offset units that increase steering sensitivity at high
speed.

Now that Kane Starcrafters is racing, put your money on us, or keep it • in

That F1 is a beauty Travis.  Long ships can look a little fragile if they • are
left essentailly as tubes, but your use of long slopes, SNOT to flare out • the
back and the wonderful clustering of those engines give this a fast, fast • shape.

Very cool.
