Noblisse Oblige
Chassis Class: Medium Weight
Weight: 2,034lbs
Max Speed: 300mph
Acceleration: 3 Seconds to 60mph
Manufactured by: Saturn Orbital
The Noblisse Oblige is a custom machine manufactured for Valeria Ren by Saturn Orbital, her largest sponsor. It is a medium weight chassis with a focus on strong handling and acceleration, foregoing heavier armor and safety features to help shore up its middling top speed. The Noblisse Oblige's center of gravity is fine tuned to synergize with its driver's body weight, granting the bike greater stability on the track. It's wheels are also custom to allow for maximum grip with proprietary tread technology, and its been rumored that Saturn Orbital has manufactured more than a dozen different sets of wheels all of which have been customized to combat different driving conditions. It's engine is also custom and despite its low top speed it boasts rapid acceleration and comes with a custom nitrous injection system that gives its driver far greater control over boosting than what is available on most other chassis on the market today.
Despite being fully custom, the Noblisse Oblige has been vetted by the Association's RCC (Racing Compliance Committee) and has been deemed legal for all sanctioned races in the Professional Circuit.
The Noblisse Oblige's chassis is an updated model of a previous bike built by Saturn Orbital for the famed driver Maximillian Fairchild, whom Saturn Orbital had also sponsored during his career. After Valeria Ren proved herself in the Professional Circuit, Saturn Orbital extended an invitation for a sponsorship deal, which included the production of a custom bike. Like Father, like daughter.
Gemini Vale
Chassis Class: Light Weight
Weight: 1,215lbs
Max Speed: 330mph
Acceleration: 5 Seconds to 60mph
Manufactured by: Lunar Technical, LLC.
The Gemini Vale is a more modern chassis developed by Lunar Technical, LLC. and is becoming a favorite amongst driver's with a preference for light-weight but speedy bikes. The Gemini Vale boasts an excellent top speed of nearly 330mph with its only shortcoming being its lagging acceleration. Excelling on tracks intended for marathon racing the bike's low weight improves its fuel economy, giving it an excellent range fit for long tracks and multiple lap cycles. The Gemini Vale is a nimble, if sometimes unruly, bike to drive, being that it is not equipped for dealing with tight turns, and its best to stick to the straightaways. In the hands of a skilled driver its shortcomings can be overcome to great effect. It's driver, Lundi Quotte, has repeatedly proven herself to be one such driver.
Roaring Rampart
Chassis Class: Heavy Weight
Weight: 3,940lbs
Max Speed: 310mph
Acceleration: 7 Seconds to 60mph
Manufactured by: Martian Heavy Industries
The Roaring Rampart, named for its unusually loud engine, is a custom built bike manufactured by Martian Heavy Industries. It is the only bike MHI has produced, and only due to the popularity and success of its driver, Nyx Mortar. The design philosophy behind the Roaring Rampart was to create a heavy, stable bike that would be near impossible to destroy. Prior to the bike's construction, its driver Nyx Mortar was already wearing the moniker of The Immortal, so Martian Heavy Industries sought to preserve that label by creating a bike that would be nigh indestructible.
The result is a near two ton behemoth of heavy armor plating and an internal structure fit for a battlefield. Martian Heavy Industries is THE primary manufacturer for the Martian Federation, and so most of what went into the Roaring Rampart is technology battle tested and perfected during Mars' War for Independence. It has terrible acceleration, a middling top speed, and handling that is likely not as good as other bikes in its weight class, but Nyx Mortar seems to not care about the stats, because he's been driving the Rampart for several years with minimal modifications. He appears to wear the Rampart like a glove, and it shows in his race performance.
Nothing in the bike is top secret, as the Accelerated Racing Association required that all bikes be inspected for fairness and to prevent cheating or sabotage, but hardly any of its design is replicated by other bike manufacturers. This lack of theft is not because the Roaring Rampart isn't worth stealing from, it's because it'd be too expensive to replicate. Martian Heavy Industries is using state of the art techniques to manufacture the finest parts and materials that would be just as home in a tank as they would be in the Rampart. Even a three foot length of copper cabling wouldn't be worth stealing ideas from, as most manufacturers wouldn't see the point in paying quadruple the price for a single part when there are more affordable alternatives. The Roaring Rampart is estimated to have cost at least triple that of the most expensive bikes on the market today.
Valiant 03
Chassis Class: Medium Weight
Weight: 2,448lbs
Max Speed: 300mph
Acceleration: 3 Seconds to 60mph
Manufactured by: Mortis Freni Industries
The Valiant 03 is Thak Jypsun's third bike, the previous two being the original Valiant and its successor the Valiant 02. Manufactured by Mortis Freni Industries, the Valiant 03 is a solid stock model chassis with a balanced focus on acceleration and handling at the expense of a higher top speed. The Valiant 03 has a solid track record of managing most tracks well, and it's driver appears well suited to drawing out the best qualities of this type of chassis. With Thak Jypsun's preference in wheels, the Valiant 03 has been seen performing maneuvers on the track that are stunning sights to behold, and with his penchant for driving dirty, the Valiant 03 has also proven adequate at allowing its driver to turn fellow driver's into roadkill.
Mortis Freni bikes are typically better armored than the Valiant 03, but Thak Jypsun has stripped down some of the protective armor and replaced it with a brawnier internal structure. With all the scrutiny the Valiant 03 is put through, most of the ARA know exactly what Thak Jypsun is driving from the smallest nut and bolt to the largest sheet of hull plating. The Valiant 03's internal structure has been reinforced with an emphasis on driver safety and more durable guts. It's widely speculated that Thak Jyspun does not care if entire sheets of hull plating are torn off during a race, provided that the internal structure remains rock solid. With the way he uses his bike as a weapon on the track, few need to wonder why he focused shifting his bike's defensive priorities from aesthetics to utility. He wants to turn his opponents into mincemeat, and then bolt on a fresh coat of cheap hull plating so he can qualify for his next race.
