 With high fatalities and induction power demands matching those of a capital city, the Velocitor is the fastest experimental circuit and is reserved only for the finest pilots and most advanced teams in known space ((Visually, I like to think of it as the final moments of Evangelion meet the way the moon was lit in Space 2001.)). With high fatalities and induction power demands matching those of a capital city, the Velocitor is the fastest experimental circuit and is reserved only for the finest pilots and most advanced teams in known space ((Visually, I like to think of it as the final moments of Evangelion meet the way the moon was lit in Space 2001.)).

 +=== Lor II "Noval" ===
 +Noval has corkscrew open-top tunnels providing crushing G-forces before forcing pilots to dive off a sheer cliffed flat of track where plasma and gravity are disabled, to navigate the vertical drop either in free-fall or gaining induction support for plasma engines back again only by skating in contact along the 4.3 kilometer death-slide through the descent as the track beneath rolls sequenced stills of famous racing events which to drivers become living animation during the mach 3 dive. Bells along its edges are rung out only by the harsh compression shockwaves of a sonic boom and at the right speed with the right number of pilots in sequence, the Lorath national anthem can be played.
 +
 +=== Nyli II "Straights" ===
 +The track's major straight twists over and over in a massive arch forcing pilots to follow like some maddened mobius: First rising up into the air then slamming down underground through tunnels in flashing checkerboard madness before moving into a free-fall jump where gravity support is disabled...

 This is shaped like an upside down T. It’s a fight against gravity both up and down, with straightaway after straightaway promising intense engagements. This is shaped like an upside down T.

 +=== Occhestia IV "Prua" ===
 +Prua has 'dog-balls' corners which shift and pitch forcing pilots to downshift through chains of rolling S-turns with track rising up along the edges: Pilots often slamming into the corners shoulder to shoulder as they try to make it through
