I forgot how much fun the Sidey is.

I use a silent shieldless sidey almost more than anything else in pvp. AP thrusters, reactive armor/hull reinforcements all engineered G5. For weapons I used one rapid fire cannon with the confuse gimble/turret mod and one rapid fire mine launcher with reberv cascade. It boosts to 550 and has around 700 hull.
It's a ton of fun and in the last week killed one FDL and sent several ships running, including a fed vett who called me a hacker and said he was reporting me to FD.

Priceless. :)

I love bouny hunting in my shildless black Sidey. named 'Puck'.

I just which FD would give us SLF plasma repeaters for our little beauties.
 
Since discovering enhanced drives and engineering my small ships, they really have taken on a new lease of life. The Sidey, Hauler and Adder are all great to fly, fast and have decent jump range. I often use them as taxis instead of my Asp, or just flying around for the fun of it, or being a pest in my fast iEagle at CGs!
 
I've been meaning to buy and engineer one just for fun. What's the best weapon choice? Can you run dual railguns with engineers?

A lot of people do, but I don't like them because they will cook your ship and you don't want to do sturdy mount because every ton knocks like 10m/s off your speed. I love cannons, they do a lot of damage for the size. I used one reverb cascade rapid firing mine launcher as 8-15 mines will deshield even a Cutter and, as nimble as the sidey is, they're easy to place. Don't bother with shields, they are paper anyways, go hull tank.
