Sorry I've not been posting for a day or two, I had a bad couple of days, but everything is sorted and back to normal now. I'm just getting everything sorted for the front page ready for the race starting in a couple of hours.
Also welcome back to all the regular Buckyball Runners, I hope you all enjoy the race.
For the record (before I get the front page updated), the current holder of the Black Riband is now CMDR Alot, who completed the run in an impressive 55m49s in the Asp Explorer Big Bird.
Welcome to the races CMDR Angel Rose, good luck with your streamed run and thanks for streaming it.Sounds like fun I'll enter and stream my run this Sunday...

Alright, in preparation for the race starting in just over a day, I've done a Black Riband run. Raiko... well, you got your wish, but not by all that much.
Screenshots on their way shortly!
Thanks both of you for having a shot at the Black Riband this week.Hmmm, so I had a couple of attempts at the Black Riband run tonight. The first, in the Cobra, wasn't great, ending up just under 1 hr 15 mins. Even stripping out the effects of an NPC interdiction, an overshot mailslot, and one particularly long witchspace transition wouldn't get the time down to where it needs to be. So I switched to a Hauler, which went better - until I lost 5 minutes due to a real life interruption. Even then, I don't think I would have beaten Alot
Conclusion: more practice (and scouting) needed...
