Was it some sort of marketing deal, where Puma would pay for some of the R&D for those ships in exchange for being able to run as a separate team for a whole season?
Or maybe it went under due to mismanagement, and Qirex, fresh off a good showing in the first season of FX-300 racing league, was able to buy up their assets?
This would make sense, as that ship's handling is VERY different when it shows up in WipEout PulsE. Showing that Qirex was able to improve significantly on the existing design.
Interesting thoughts, no?
