===================================
With the racing teams using new prototype ships this season comes a new battery of tests and test results. Herein the top speed of each team's newer ship model is analyzed.
- Icaras mkII - Top Speed 100: 792 km/h
Piranha mkII - Top Speed 100: 792 km/h - Triakis mkII - Top Speed 95: 791 km/h
- Auricom mkII - Top Speed 90: 789 km/h
Harimau mkII - Top Speed 90: 789 km/h - Assegai mkII - Top Speed 85 : 788 km/h
EG-X mkII - Top Speed 85: 788 km/h
Mirage mkII - Top Speed 85: 788 km/h
Qirex mkII - Top Speed 85: 788 km/h - Goteki 45 mkII - Top Speed 80: 787 km/h
- AG-Systems mkII - Top Speed 80: 786 km/h
Feisar mkII - Top Speed 80: 786 km/h
Test protocol is similar to the one performed last year for the Mark I ship models.
Goteki 45 appears to have the only ship capable of unlocking the engine's potential further than any other ship, as other teams with the same top speed characteristic were unable to reach that last km/h that Goteki 45 was able to display. It is of minor importance though, as pilots in a race tend to follow the lines with the most speed pads, and therefore all the ships surpass their top speed characteristics any way for a good portion of the race.
Please note that actual top speed characteristic is assessed in an actual racing condition, and the theoretical maximum value can differ from 1 or 2 km/h. Under certain conditions during a race, ships may be able to reach this theoretical top speed value (We have seen Icaras mkII reach 793 km/h), though it requires assistance of a speed pad in these cases, the ship slowing down after the boost until this theoretical top speed is attained. Ships are unable to reach the theoretical peak otherwise, except Goteki 45 as explained before.
Attached is the list detailing the top speeds of all the ship models for each team registered for the FX-350 racing league. They are in order of the top speed they are capable of reaching, then in alphabetical order.
