- Celerity Speedway - Location Overview - 4 April 2023
https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/800/0*KD7u2Czv3cHHRgXG Once the drone wars were over, Drone manufacturer Celerity opened a series of speedways across the UTA where they would host drone races. The speedway found in Red Rock has been vacated due to the newfound A-EYE corporation’s occupation of the area. The pit crew may have left, but you can still find some useful racing equipment, namely the patented Celerity Speed Cream. https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/800/0*gMBYZlckNCUjrZZ3 Celerity Speed Cream is a high-tech lubricant for your drone rotors, increasing your movement speed by 10%!

- Battle Drones: Elord O’dor and the A-EYE corporation - 28 March 2023
Battle Drones: Red Rock Resistance is an upcoming top down drone shooter for PC.
