Racing starfighter

"Did you ever think about painting this in a less conspicuous color?"
"Well, it's a racer. Not really a combat craft."

―Commander Poe Dameron and Kazuda Xiono discuss the Fireball

Kazuda Xiono, piloting the Fireball, and Torra Doza, piloting Blue Ace, race

Racing starfighters, also known as racers, were aircraft or spacecraft designed for racing.
