The Caldari Gumball rally is up and getting ready, and to add a little twist to the proceedings, we are going to keep in the spirit of that money grubbing race and make this a corp event.
That's right Folks find a sponsor because along with personal bragging rights you will have the pleasure of winning for your corps.
CEO's and recruiters alike pay heed. Go and find the best pilots in space and try to hire them as your pilot of choice for the up coming race. Each corp must recruit TWO racers sopick well. Your pair will race togther and how they finish will add racer points to you totals. I wanna see ruthless negotiation and blind loyalty on this one guys. You are out to win.
Entry fee is 1 mil isk again and limited to 10 two pilot teams, but the prizes are going to be two fold. For the corp that earns the most Racer points (details to follow in a few days) there is a BPO for a battle cruiser of the race of choice. Second place Corp will get the BPO for their choice of destroyer. These prizes may improve as my isk and donation situation improve and updates are expected to come. very soon.
Racers themselves are up for Implants, Ships and Iskies and of course all the bragging rights they can stand.
This is a limited Frigate class race. Tier three or lower of any race, all mods allowed unless they target other ships (no passives, nos's, scramblers etc. and especially no guns or drones). Remember the gumball rally is a race of skill not fire power.
So come a strap a rocket to your but and see how you do. Antries need to be posted here, preferably by the sponsoring Corp. Make sure your racers are reliable and help them kit out their ships to the tenth degree. Three weeks till the race so plenty of time to boost those nav and command skills. Further details for the race.
Corperate Racer points are as follows
1st - 15 2nd - 10 3rd - 7 4th - 5 5th - 3
These are the individual racer finishes points and the points for team overall placement.
an Example XYZ corp has its racers, SMEGHEAD and CARROTTOP. Smeghead finishes third and carrottop finishes 5th. Racer points for indivual effort is 10. Lets assume furth that They are the second team to finish, since SIDEWINDER corp's racers finished 1st and 2nd (SideWinder has REALLY good racers) so XYZ Corp gets an additional 10 points for overall placement. Their total would be 20.
Fairly simple, Yeah? Ok then let's get those recruiting posters out there and start posting teams here in the Topic. Remember the pilots will be getting prizes as well as the sponsor corps.
For Pride and honour (or old fashion greed) lets get this rolling
Remember 0200 Thursday GMT (tomorrow night). Contact DJ Alacrity or any of the DJ's from EVE radio or Fitzhugh of Sidewinder Technologies for further race details. And as Always check the DJ Alacrity Forum at Eve-radio.com to get entered into the race. The Minmatar Gumbal Rally was a great success And I am hoping that this next race will prove as fun and profitable for all involved. Corperations get you best pilots and racers get your richest sponsor and enter.

Have the events Manager or the CEO of your sponsor corp drop a line in the Eve-radio.com forums (DJ Alacrity Forum under competitions) and I will get you on the roster. I will post a rules / instructions post here tonight.
The most important thing tho is that you be in New Caldari at 0200 GMT and join the GUMBALL channel ingame with your team mate.
Entry fee is only 2 mil per team ponied up by the sponsor and as noted below the prizes are BIG bonus BPC's are going to be thrown in at convenience (too many to list or decide on but they will be there)

Whats a tier three frigate?
ex P-TMC
If you think you can do a better job, go find yourself a datacentre to host a box, get a copy of Visual Studio, and STFU.

Teir 3 frigates are standard frigates requiring only level three in the basic frigate skills. Basically this is to eliminate all the tech two frigates (interceptors, covertops, assualt frigs).
The minmatar was an open class race that I allowed anything, but this one is stock unlimited. Mods are only limited to noncombat, everything else is allowed (course that basic repair mod may make you go faster *shrug* ;P)

The Caldari Gumball rally was another big success.
Kith Somtaaw with Team K-S took top honors, having the first and second place racers, and also the top corp finish.
Prizes awarded were a Ferox BPO, and 350mm Railgun BPC. Tha racers walked off the an interceptor, a Blackbird an implant rand bp's and a reaper ( ain't I a stinker)
Eve-Radio and I will continue the Gumbal racing series in Gallente space next with a truckers rally... rules a re tentative (how to make these behemoths seem exciting SIGH).
To date the rules will takes the ship of a three system race and in each there will be pickups to deliver. There will be a capacity minimum and no transport will be allowed only standard industrials.
More details to come so all you traders and haulers get your favorite (and ugliest) idnustrial hauler and drag it over to far too pretty gallente space...
Race should be ready in a bout a month Cynicism is the body's realization that the body is really in charge
