Air Racing | The Rocket Racing League not only their league, but also the orbital and suborbital space industries. The future The Rocket Racing League has several US venues planned and would eventually like to be international. It is currently in discus- sion with seven countries. Television will be an important factor, and Whitelaw has said that the starting date for the first league races will depend on television contracts. Viewers both at home and at the races will be able to share the experience of the pilot through the five cameras placed on and in the plane, as well as cameras in blimps and helicopters nearby. They will also be able to “take part” in the races through a video game the league is developing. The game will be a multiplayer online game, 28 Outlook 02/2008 allowing players to become a character within it, through which they can interact with other players. It will also allow players to virtually race against pilots in real Rocket Racer League events. Whitelaw plans to hold a worldwide videogame contest and then fly the winner to one of the league’s races. The player will be put in a blacked-out tent and will start his or her virtual aircraft in real time with the actual Rocket Racers in the event. The player will have to maneuver in conditions, such as weather, that reflect those experienced by the pilots in the aircraft. Spectators and television viewers will be able see the virtual aircraft on the screen, together with the real aircraft.

These games came to define the first-person shooter genre. Today, though Carmack continues to program about 40 hours a week, he also owns Arma- dillo Aerospace and designs rocket engines. He has a very experimental approach, launching many more rockets than most in his business. Along with designing engines that can be used for Rocket Racer aircraft, he is looking to create a vehicle that will take passengers into space.
