if your looking for speed, look no further. Join the Origin m50 Owners club.
We don’t care what you do or where you go, as long as you do it
If you want to get from point A to point B as quickly as possible and with as much style as possible then ORIGIN’s M50 is for you. Featuring supercharged engines that counter a tiny weapons loadout, the M50 is a ship for going FAST. The core spaceframe is used by both racing teams and for military courier missions, but the civilian M50 is a luxury spacecraft like no other.
Our inspiration
excerpt from Lore Builder Racing
Shortly after Ellis System was discovered in 2467, the system was very sparsely populated. Four planets were currently being terraformed so there wasn’t much to do planetside. Terraformers began having ship races around the system to pass the time, setting up the skeletal ‘tracks’ for the first set of courses.
Travellers moving through the system began to take part, challenging the locals to their high-speed races. Amon Murray was a criminal and gambler in the system, currently making most of his money selling the terraformers drugs and other contraband. He was also a bookie who began to collect bets on the amateur races throughout the system.
Finally, in an effort to make some real money, Murray committed some of his resources to offer a small credit prize to the winner, knowing that the CTR’s (the UPE’s currency at the time) would bring even more competitors into the system and hence, more bets would be placed. Under those humble (but somewhat shady) beginnings, the inaugural Murray Cup was held in 2479.
After that, the races grew in popularity and Murray had fortuitously positioned himself in the heart of it. His cash prizes increased as well, until he could afford to leave his criminal enterprises behind (mostly) and focus on pushing the sport and spectacle of ship-racing into the mainstream.
