Here's my entry. Actually, it's two ships but similar design - on the basis that the competition was for a Starfighter AND Racer, I've done both...all will become clear when you read the story...

My entry is the Sinister Industries Starburst Interceptor. The design is based on the original Sinister Industries Starburst X1A Racer which won the much sought after Keller Racing Prize three years running between 2985 and 2987. The Keller prize was established to find the fastest one-man ship that could circumnavigate the outer rim of Earth's solar system at sub-light speeds. The Starburst X1A managed to achieve a record time of twelve days in its first entry in the competition. After beating the opposition soundly and amazing the racing fraternity, the Terran Empire approached the designers at Sinister Industries with a view to obtaining permission to construct a variation of the Starburst X1A for military use.

Here's the original Starburst X1A Racer with its pilot, the galaxy-famous adventurer, stuntpilot and showman Anders Henrikson after his first win in the Keller Racing Competition:

And a view from the rear:

Finally, a view in flight - note that the landing skids retract upwards during flight.

(The cockpit on this version does open, I just forgot to take a picture of that.)

The first Mk I Starburst production fighters entered service in 2994, and so far, three variants have served Terran Empire Forces with distinction. Featuring two injection fed Lavadyne engines the ship is capable of operating as an air-breather and in deep space, thus making it ideal for operating from planetary garrisons as well as from orbital or capital-ship based facilities. With the military version having lost the landing skids, the ship can land on its belly, although more usually it docks into a supporting cradle. This is to save weight. Lift is obtained entirely by inbuilt anti-gravity repulsors running along the keel. The Starburst can carry one pilot although there are slower two-man training models available.

The Starburst is lightly armed with two forward mounted Grasers (gravity focussed laser beams) and two 12cm "Dart" missile launchers ahead of the engines. Although these missiles are small, the extra forward momentum of the ship firing them makes them a formidable weapon even without the warhead.

The Starburst is lightly furnished externally to enable it to achieve its great speed. Many critics of the Starburst project say that it is a very ugly craft as much of its superstructure is exposed, however this makes it much easier to service and repair. Compared to such models as the Nymph Class Interceptor* or the Ganymede Class Strike Fighter** however, the Starburst is merely functional rather than beautiful, although it performs superbly.
