Anyone remember Stoic's Mach?
He wanted to see how much isk could be made by blitzing L3s. He even kept a spread sheet on it. All that information can be found in posts, from about 2 years ago. I believe he was making about 100m/hr. The Mach was touted at "King of Level 3s".
Usually blitzing in EVE Survival notes, tell you the minimum of what you have to do to complete the mission. This is what Stoic was doing, however, he put a stop watch to it. He timed from the time he left his base, ran the mission, and then complete it with his agent. This is what was put as "BLITZING". He was doing it as fast as he could. He even installed warp speed rigs on his Mach to cut down the time to and from the missions. It was a tremendous effort on his part to keep track of everything and put it down in a spread sheet.
Stoic also had 3 Tracking computers, and a sensor booster on his Mach.
After failing to beat Stoic's Mach in a Ferox, though I had come close to some of his times, I realized I needed to get to and from the missions quicker. So I fitted a Tengu with warp speed rigs, 3 tracking computers and a sensor booster too. I had 250mm T2 rials with Caldari Antimatter. My tank was only a Pith c-type MSB.
There are about 22-23 missions that can be BLITZED this way.
My Tengu beat Stoic's Mach times, 21 out of 23 missions, (or 20 out of 22). The Mach was no longer the King of Level 3s.
So there is a big difference between blitzing a mission, and BLITZING a mission with your hair on fire. BLITZING is done with stop watch.
It was agreed with Stoic, that the pace of BLITZING is rigorous, and cannot be kept up for any length of time. One slip of the finger, one delay in targeting, can mean seconds, and a losing time.
So, there it is.

I am sorry for the hi jack.
There was talk of blitzing, there was talk of Machs. Just wanted to give some history as this happened before many of you even joined EVE. I also wanted to set the record straight and make some corrections.
I thought I could add something relevant, but I guess that was missed. Sorry again. Mea Culpa

8 AU/s is awesome! Especially for a BS.
However, my Tengu with same rigs and a WS-60, hits 9.32 AU/s.
And that is without any Ascendancy implants.
If I used Ascendancy implants the speed would hit over 12AU/s.
Needed the extra speed to beat the Mach in blitzing L3s.
