Hey! I am promoting Tech here! 70's tech, but tech none the less!

Ummm..... No. lol I have 2 70's lighting tech, this Fiber Optic lamp and a Lava Lamp. I would much rather have the Lava Lamp.


Last night I stopped the Cutter Runs. Since Friday night after I ranked up to Rear Admiral and unlocked the Corvette, I have popped up to 60% Tycoon, and made just over 100 Million. I needed a break, so I parked the cutter, Jumped into the Cobra and headed off to LHS 20 to pick up a discounted FAS again.

I had an FAS before but sold it back when I realized that I really didn't need it at that time. Now I feel I could really make use of it as a break from the trading goal of Elite. That damn ship is so manoeuvrable compared to the cutter, as is the Cobra. I was literally slaloming around ships in and out of the mail slot with both and going Weeeeeee on TS. I think I annoyed Tor a little with it.


And congrats to you Old_Sarg on the rank up!

thanks Loriath,

You need a strobe light and a disco ball... :lol:
I built a strobe light and "dancing" lights from radio shck kits in the 70's :D

and I know the rush of the cobra III well, I was running mine again last night :)
I was smuggling again (can't seem to keep my nose clean, just love the rush).
Anyway I shot the mail slot at about 350, I was under a another small ship and beside a huge one! and just beat another scan :mrgreen: and that was after 3 interdiction's in the system allready, I should have jumped to another system but thought na I can do it, yes, but not easy!

After all the trading, got bored and needed a break, so I headed over to Brestla for some Buggy Action. Tor Joined me and Kharma was on TS as well, but he was busy looting a mining facility.

Tor and I set off to chase Kharma down who was about 25km away from where we were. Tor kept asking me how fast I was going because he couldn't catch me. He eventually switched to his ship, but still couldn't catch me before I made it to where Kharma was. He switched back to his Buggy and a small fight ensued where I was trying to hit Kharmas ship with the SRV guns as he flew around. I manage to get a few shots on him and on Tor before I saw Kharma lining up behind me. I knew it was a bad idea with only 4% hull left in the Buggy, but had to try.

I did a backflip racing ahead of Kharma and almost landed some shots when I hit the ground and exploded! Buggy death #1.

Kharma headed off to shoot pirates for a mission and Tor and I buzzed around in the buggies around I Sola Prospect for a while when I decided to climb some buildings. Tor became lazy and tried to land his Python on some taller ones to see if he could get his buggy to deploy. No go. So I landed my buggy on his Python and he lifted me up about 200m or so and I drove off and onto part of the larger buildings to see if I could find a way higher. I landed it but found no way to get higher. I dropped down to the ground without killing myself and joked that "Sure, I can survive that fall and will probably die hitting a rock or a wall on the ground" and wouldn't you know, about 5 seconds later.... BOOM! Buggy Death #2

Headed off in a little race with Tor in the Buggies. I throttled up and sat back in the chair letting the buggy go, no steering and full throttle. Again, Tor was like "How the hell, I can't catch you!" Even not steering or breaking, I was faster. Although he lasted longer since I was bouncing around a lot till I saw a large rock ahead of me. I told Tor on TS "Oh Oh I think this rock will kill me" and sure enough, Boom! Buggy Death #3

Blew off some steam, had a blast (or a boom if you will) and had a few laughs. Typical time in the A-Team.

Guess I will get back to trading today.

Made it to the Orion Nebula, via the Pleiades,Hind and Witch head nebula's. With a small detour via Rigel.

The Cobra's holding up well and only one slight mishap so far

En route Ive passed the wreckage's of three ships, that were left in their resting places untouched.
I'm thinking about a little exploration in the local systems (there's so many there must one uncharted lol) before pushing on towards my goal and the Horse head Nebula
