[[image:RaceTrack_B5.png|right|thumb|One of the several race tracks.]]
There are several race tracks in the Vendetta universe. These race tracks require the most agile of ships and a very talented pilot, one wrong move and your time won't score, or your ship will explode. Most pilots use the [[Centurion]] and [[Vulture]] class ships. Those that use the Centurion will most likely use the Itani and Orion variants. Those using the Vulture will most likely choose the Serco variant. While the Vulture provides better handling than the Centurion it has a higher chance of damage upon collisions due to the large wingspan. The current set of race tracks are located in Sedina [[#Sedina_B-5|B-5]], [[#Sedina_D-5|D-5]], [[#Sedina_E-5|E-5]], [[#Sedina_F-5|F-5]], [[#Sedina_G-5|G-5]], [[#Sedina_H-5|H-5]].

The Deneb Run is the original 'marathon' race in Vendetta and was the brainchild of Martin and the mercenary guild [BLAK]. ''It would be really great if Martin would add some background here.''<br>
The Deneb Run is the original 'marathon' race in Vendetta and was the brainchild of Martin and the mercenary guild [BLAK]. ''It would be really great if Martin would add some background here.''<br>
After [BLAK] dissolved, the sponsorship of this popular race was taken up by the [TGFT] and [EnB] guilds, the two largest trade guilds extant in the Vendetta universe. As of this writing, it is customary for the lieutenant of [TGFT], Screwball, to host the races, deliver running commentary, and to hand out the prize monies. Veteran racers also have been known to be substitute-hosts in Screwball's absence.

*This was a deadly race. Blue Streak was the first one down, killed in Latos by a pair of CLM. Soon after, firsm ended Slade Coldsteele's hopes of victory in Sedina. Husher was almost out of Bractus and in 2nd place when Quirc Taranis killed him with help from TheBlackFlag. Sana Tolala, having sustained heavy damage from the CLM ambush in Latos, fell to Quirc Taranis in Bractus shortly after Husher. Congratulations to Quirc Taranis for claiming the 800k prize money for shooting down Sana Tolala.
