What is Mort Racing?

Mort Racing originated in France in 2300. It was funded by Pierre Mesmere who created the workshops and track designs for competitors to use. The sport was built upon the idea of creating total mayhem and heightening all sense of danger. Successful combatants would have to cheat death at every corner to survive, hence the name Mort Racing, derived from the french word 'Morte' meaning 'Death'.

It was met with mixed reactions, including a lengthy court-case debating 'Prisoners or not, such a high chance of carnage is borderline murder'. With crime on the uprise and prisons crowded beyond control; the sport was passed in 2311 and deemed legal. In 2325, French visionary Mute Cariole devised what is now known as The Mort Racing Professional League(MRPL). It was an altered version of the sport, aimed more at recreating the excitement of the position-based races of old. The danger was not enhanced, instead it was ever so slightly reduced and the competitors were to made up of racers proven their worth from other professional racing venues. The reshuffling of the sport came at a vital time as previous position-based races were struggling to maintain the thrill needed to entertain.

Eventually the MRPL attracted competitors from all over the world and soon the same Prison League system was implemented into over-crowded Prisons globally.
