A '''renithor''' is basically a high powered [[Antigravs|antigrav]] engine with a seat attached, distantly related to [[Hoverbikes]]. The name comes from an old [[Valcarian]] phrase meaning “death seat.” Renithors combine [[Antigravs|antigrav]]  generators with turbothrust engines to produce veritable speed machines. The renithor sacrifices virtually all manner of safety device in order to achieve higher speed - there are no back-up handling, accelerator or braking controls, and beyond a simple seat restraint, no protection for the pilot. Manufacturers assume that anyone brave enough to strap into a renithor is good enough to handle one under any condition - or they'll die trying. [[Renithor racing]] is an extremely popular sport in both the [[VIR|Valcarian Empire]] and in the [[Par'tha Expanse]].
