1. Name: Draco Cavernae
  2. Location: Lake Schluchsee, Black Forest, Germany
  3. Date of completion: August 11th, 2179
  4. Motivation: Create a testing track for a future AG team.
  5. Building process: As a testing track, it needed to be varied in its terrain, so part of the track was left unpaved to put ships under more stress than necessary, despite said track section being almost perfectly straight.
  6. Source of funding: Entrepreneur Leopold von Strauss, donations from fans and local businesses.
  7. Approximate Phantom Lap Time: 0:31.50
  8. TRACK NOT REVERSIBLE

Official Backstory
Draco Cavernae was more of a dream than an investment. When AG racing died off, and its return uncertain, Leopold von Strauss set out to revive the sport as a whole after several years of test driving commercial AG ships for the European Union. Because Germany did not have such a prevalent presence in the AG League as France and Great Britain, his start was rocky. But once his proposed test track was released to the public eye, he had no trouble gathering resources to make it a reality.

After its completion in 2179, Draco Cavernae became the base of operations for the team known as Amphithere Engineering, hence its Latin namesake: Dragon's Cave. The track is buried into Germany's Black Forest bordering on Lake Schluchsee, and the main HQ tower can be seen from the town bearing the same name. It features many sharp turns, an unpaved straightaway, and a fairly large incline that could launch unsuspecting pilots into the lake.

  4. Inspired by the Big Four: Yes
  5. Motive of team forming: To form a team that would later ignite amateur competition among hardcore AG racing fans.
  6. INDEPENDENT RACING TEAM

Official Backstory
After the fall of the recent AG Racing League, New German Empire entrepreneur and former European Union AG pilot Leopold von Strauss formed Amphithere Engineering in 2182 with the sole purpose of keeping remnants of the AG sport alive. However, he did not want to completely abandon the team he held so dear, so with the help of the European Union's commercial development branch, he created one beast of a machine that proved he loved the sport.

Appropriately named The Dragon, this ship soars with unmatched grace and ferocity. Despite meager shields and the lack of an outright top speed, the incredible handling allows the ship to navigate tight, twisting sections with ease, and the increase in thrust capacity makes it quick out the corners as well. Needless to say, this is one ship to keep an eye on.
