Stupid question, im hearing multiple answers from this..
The Racial bonus, eg. Race Bonus: 25% Small Projectile Damage bonus, 75% EM and 50% Thermal Resistance bonus to Shield and Armor
Do you only get this, if both you and the ship are the same race? People are both telling me you do and you dont, and i dont know the answer.
Basically, this is because I want to fly Minmatar frigs, except im Caldari. I've wished i was minmatar since i was first cloned.. those caldari frigates are so slow and clumsy

your racial bonus comes from the fact that to fly a elite frigate you need that race frigate to lvl 5 so you recieve a 25% damage bonus from that You do not recieve any bonus due to your chara's race and specific ships

If this isn't in a FAQ or sticky somewhere, it should be.

Based on dev answers, ISD answers, and in-game testing - no. You get the bonus if you're flying the ship. Think of it more as the racial technical advantage, not a genetic bonus of some kind.
I'm Intaki, but I do almost the same damage with my Mal and Crusader that I do with my Taranis. The variance is, for me, explained by my lower skill with energy turrets.
Buy & Fly with peace of mind, you're getting what you paid for. Even the duct tape.

I would find it cool, if some ships could only be flewn if you have that race or would give you at least certain boni. Would make it much more interesting to stick with one(and YOUR) race than as it is now.

Oh dear! :p
As for race-specific ships, I believe they'll be a few coming with Shiva or shortly after. Correct me if i'm wrong :)

Thanks for the replies.
"Race Bonus" is kinda misleading imo :)

AFAIK the faction ships will be based on standing rather than race - which makes far more sense, after all if an amarrian turned his back on his people and did lots of good work for the minmatar, why shouldnt he pilot one of their faction ships?
