From BHH Wiki
Jump to: navigation, search

Black hole racing is a form of spacecraft racing where various classes of specially modified near-light speed spacecraft compete in races where they pass deliberately close to the event horizon of a black hole located between two space stations. Two prizes are awarded, one for the first to reach the finish and one for passing the closest to the event horizon.

The races are managed by the Black Hole Racing Organization (BHRO) and, although legal in all countries with the notable exception of Helltuna, are seen by many people to be "completely insane".
