"For decades, the Murray Cup has been the pinnacle of astro-engineering and piloting." -- Marco Verender, MCRL Commissioner The Murray Cup is the premier starship racing series in the UEE. The series was established in 2479 by Amon Murray, a small-time criminal and gambler, who established the Cup in order to bring more racers into the system, augmenting the amateur races which were already taking place, thus increasing his bookmaking earnings.
