==Description== ==Description==
− The '''Blue Nova''' racer was introduced to the high performance racing scene in 3067. Priced at 80% of its nearest competitor, the Blue Nova uses a smaller utility vehicle engine developed in [[2750]] by [[Outworlds Motors]]. The creative use of a custom exhaust system makes the engine sound more powerful than it actually is. The owners and drivers of the Blue Nova don't seem to care though as it has been one of Durandel-British's best sellers. It is available as a hardtop and a convertable.<ref name="TRO:VAp12"/><ref name=TRO:VArp10/> + High performance vehicles aren’t just found in pro and amateur racing, however.
+ Almost every world in the known Sphere sports high-end, high-performance sports cars,
+ such as the Avanti Starfire, the Hughes-McCandless Streak, and the Scion-Nissaki
+ Hyperion. The average citizen couldn’t readily afford such quality vehicles until Durandel-
+ British unveiled their Blue Nova convertible for the [[3067]] model year. Priced almost
+ twenty percent less than the Starfire, the Blue Nova achieves some of its savings with a
+ re-engineered 2750-model Outworlds Motors utility vehicle engine, which is mated to a
+ carefully engineered exhaust system that provides a convincing aural illusion of a
+ powerful engine. In fact, the Blue Nova is notoriously underpowered.
