                                -Disclamer-
This is mod is a passion project, created mostly by myself with no experience 
coding or scripting--so please excuse any barbaric logic found in the pk3.
I did do my best to keep things neat. There also might be some Head-Canon mixed 
with lore drops to make as much logical sense possiable.


                                -Attention-
Obvs, DO NOT mod/steal anything, ask first;
Esp if you feel like using something from this mod in another F-Zero mod.
Like for example--if you want my Bumpers to spawn on an F-Zero Track or
use them as Egg Prisons for an F-Zero Themed Egg Prison Map. Let me know first.

You DO have permission to add new colors straight into the color lua, save on
your load entries.

I do hope you enjoy the mod as much as I had making it.

															 --Razor Volare




































The year is 2024. Dr. Robotnik and Tails' combined efforts in a time of peace,
have created a new power-source--the "High-Voltage Ring" (HVR for short);
a ring fused with the power of 80,000 Rings. The HVR, in need of testing,
was subjected to a new kind of go-kart--The Ring Racer. As a result, the world 
enter a new age of racing; with multiple locations around the world being 
reworked and geared up for the new racing hotness known as- 



              D r .   R o b o t n i k ' s   R i n g   R a c e r s 



Unbeknownst to the genius duo; the HVR could act as a gateway to other 
timelines, special stages, and dimensions. As if it was a heed to the call of 
the HVR--racers and raceways from these other universes begin pouring 
through the HVR. Of these Racers--Eight Machines hailing from a far-off distance
future came speeding through...albeit at a smaller size. 
(Akin to AGES' Daytona USA Hornet forme.) 

These machines were built for speed & combat, on raceways held high above
the clouds; filled with jump-plates, explosive & spin traps, rebounding walls,
AI Controlled Bumpers, and dangerious racers that wish to rewrite the entire 
universe--but can they handle the tricks and tracks of Dr. Robotnik's 
Ring Racers?

      THE FAMICOM FOUR
					  
Racer Number 07 - Blue Falcon
Home Track: Port Town
Codename: FZBF
Color: Internova Blue
Engine Class: [B]
Body: B
Boost: C
Grip: B
Speed: 457km/h (5)
Weight: 1260kg (3)
Descr: 
Normally piloted by the Legendary Bounty Hunter--Captain Falcon.
The Blue Falcon is a well-balanced machine, perfect for any racer to pickup
and race with. Loved by fans and hated by rivals; the Blue Falcon is
up to any challenge, any race, any track.


Racer Number 03 - Golden Fox
Home Track: Mute City
Codename: FZGF
Color: Golden Legacy
Body: D
Boost: S
Grip: D
Engine Class: [A]
Speed: 438km/h (3)
Weight: 1020kg (2)
Descr: 
Normally piloted by the High-Flying Medico--Dr. Stewart.
The Golden Fox is a machine built by the late scientist & racer, Kevin Stewart.
Built with highspeed boosting in-mind; it trades armor protection and weight
for it's "S-Class" booster and recovery abilities. As a result, it's grip
is weak and tends to slide. In the right hands, it can dominate any race...
ANY RACE...


Racer Number 06 - Wild Goose
Home Track: Death Wind
Codename: FZWG
Color: Wild Poripoto
Body: S
Boost: B
Grip: C
Engine Class: [E]
Speed: 462km/h (6)
Weight: 1620kg (4)
Descr: 
Normally piloted by Ex-Poripoto Military Special Fighting Unit 
and Assassin--Pico.
Built by the Poripoto Military under the orders of General Repeat, during war
times, this machine was rebuilt for racing for his old friend and 
former solider, Pico. 
Designed by Sergeant Lipot; the Wild Goose is Military Grade tough. 
It can take any beating and deliver it back ten-fold. Perfect for the most 
reckless racers F-Zero (and Ring Racers) has ever known.


Racer Number 05 - Fire Stingray
Home Track: Red Canyon
Codename: FZFS
Color: Cryton Fire
Body: A
Boost: D
Grip: B
Engine Class: [F]
Speed: 478km/h (9)
Weight: 1960kg (5)
Descr: 
Normally piloted by Cryton's Bandit Gang Leader--Samurai Goroh.
Not much is known of where or how it was created, but without any doupts--
it's illegally built with stolen parts from all over the galaxy. Fire Stingray's
high top speed requires a cool, level-headed thinking to control. Due to it's
high speed retenion; it can make turns without needing to boost afterwards.
(At least, in F-Zero & F-Zero 99.) 




       THE BSX UNDERGROUND
	   
[REDACTED] - Blue Thunder
Home Track: Unknown
Color: Colbat Lightning
Body: B
Boost: B
Grip: B
Engine Class: [C]
Speed: 473km/h (7)
Weight: 1260kg (3)
Descr: When F-Zero got cancelled due to the infamious great crash; you only
had two options to race--Sponsored Races held by St.GIGA or illegal undergound
races. The machines of these races weren't built to code--anything goes.
Blue Thunder is rumored to be piloted by Captain Falcon; Built to combat the
Underground Machines and their non-regulated stats.
	   
	   
[REDACTED] - Luna Bomber
Home Track: Unknown
Color: Shattered Star
Body: E
Boost: C
Grip: B
Engine Class: [I]
Speed: 477km/h (8)
Weight: 3800kg (9)
Descr: Rumored to be build from stolen designs by Dr. Stewart for a new, faster
F-Zero Machine--The Luna Bomber is the heaviest F-Zero machine to date; dwarfing
that of even Black Bull and Fat Shark in later years. Despite it's obscene 
weight; it's a very fragile machine due to engines strapped to its sides.
It will require all the skill of any expert pilot to control such an unruly and
fragile machine.
	   
	   
[REDACTED] - Green Amazon
Home Track: Unknown
Color: A.M.A.Z.O.N.E.
Body: B
Boost: A
Grip: D
Engine Class: [B]
Speed: 450km/h (4)
Weight: 890kg (1)
Descr: A highly experiential combat machine built by the Poripoto Military,
being tested as an F-Zero Machine. Codenamed: A.M.A.Z.O.N.E., the Green Amazon
has the fastest acceleration any F-Zero machine has had up to date, hitting
it's top speed within mere seconds. It shockingly sturdy, despite it's frail
appearance. No one knows what military purpose the machine would have been used 
for during a time of war. If it was designed as a super-high performance 
combat spacecraft; Galaxy Dog's Wyverns would be no match.
	   
	   
[REDACTED] - Fire Scorpion
Home Track: Unknown
Color: Sunset Stinger
Body: B
Boost: E
Grip: C
Engine Class: [E]
Speed: 463km/h (6)
Weight: 2152kg (6)
Descr: After the great F-Zero Accident; Goroh was seen driving around this
machine for a time. It safe to say the Fire Stingray was lost in that accident.
Without a means to rebuild it, what with stolen parts and all; 
the Fire Scorpion took over. 
Despite what many think--the machine was built to code; having stats that match 
that of current day machines. It's a small wonder why Goroh loved his
Fire Stingray so much.
	   



          THE BUMPERS

Purple Bumper - Plasma Snake
Home Track: Unknown
Codename: BPPS
Color: Purplesaurus
Body: C
Boost: F
Grip: B
Engine Class: [F]
Speed: Unknown (7)
Weight: Unknown (6)
Descr: 
Purple Bumpers were the fastest of the mass-produced stock cars in early F-Zero.
All given out to newcomers when the sport was still young.
Able to keep up with the Famicom Four; they used to stay around 5th place and
lower. The Plasma Snake got it's name due to how it looks like a "snake head"
with it's dark colors. The "Plasma" came from the stormy night when was
christened, as purple lightning danced in the clouds like snakes.
Purple Bumpers have sadily been fully retired from racing.


Green Bumper - Hydro Frog
Home Track: Unknown
Codename: BPHF
Color: Boppin' Green
Body: B
Boost: A
Grip: C
Engine Class: [H]
Speed: Unknown (5)
Weight: Unknown (7)
Descr: 
Green Bumpers were the second fastest of the mass-produced stock cars.
While not as fast as Purple Bumpers, Greens could shrug off a bump to hold
their position. Usually holding 6th and lower. The Hydro Frog got it's name due 
to how it looks like a "frog head", with it's green and pink color scheme. 
Kero Kero, all the way. Green Bumpers have sadily been fully retired.


Orange Bumper - Turbo Snail
Home Track: Unknown
Codename: BPTS
Color: Charged Orange
Body: C
Boost: A
Grip: B
Engine Class: [G]
Speed: Unknown (2)
Weight: Unknown (8)
Descr: 
Orange Bumpers were the slowest of the mass-produced stock cars and most common.
These machines usually couldn't keep up with the pack, and would be overlapped
by the Famicom Four. Due to their slow speed and being able to shrug of any
kind of bump; they and the rest of stock cars got renamed to "Bumpers".
These "Bumpers" are now colored to an Iron Grey, feeding Grand Prix racers 
KOs to improve their Power Gauge.

"Turbo Snails" are the lovely nickname given to the Bumpers by F-Zero Fans 
everywhere; and is how this Bumper got it's name. The reason to it's name, is
due to its orange and yellow color scheme matching that of snail shells, and the 
steering-tubes look like it's antenna. 


Pink Bumper - Demonic Slug
Home Track: Unknown
Codename: BPDS
Color: Nuclear Pink
Body: E
Boost: A
Grip: A
Engine Class: [A]
Speed: Unknown (2)
Weight: Unknown (1)
Descr: 
When an Orange Bumper's power level reachs critical; its engine's 
reactor would give off enough heat to make it change colors. These flashing, 
slower, hot pink bumpers became known as "Bomb Bumpers". Early Pilots were 
usually forced to jump ship--at risk of being blown up from any hard bump. 
Some racers call these Demon Machines or Devil Machines. 
"One Bump with the Devil and you're done." 
Bumpers have been replaced by AI or Remote-Control over the years, 
ensuring pilot safety to these driving hazards. These "Bomb Bumpers" are 
now colored Red and give off a hissing fuse-like noise.
 
This old Bumper was repainted Pink, in honor of those dangerious early days.
It's name, "Demonic Slug", is in honor of the days of being called
"Demon Machines", but also looking like Slugs with their antenna-looking
steering-tubes.
