OVERVIEW OF PARASPORT DRAG RACING Parasport drag racing is a form of motorsport wherein specially designed motor vehicles compete to cross a predetermined finish line first; unlike regular drag racing motor vehicles, however, parasport drag racing vehicles extensively utilise anomalous enhancements, thaumaturgic alterations and/or paratechnology to increase their performance far beyond any feasibly normal bounds. Officially discovered by the Foundation in 2011, the parasport finds its (earliest known) origins in an incident at a race event in 1999. Competitor John Whyte was (retroactively) discovered to have been using paratechnological enhancements in their motorcycle during the event; during the second semi-final Top Fuel Motorbike match, John Whyte's motorcycle suffered a catastrophic anti-karmic shockwave, believed to have been caused by an unintended interaction between an active U-Space gateway used for retrocausal deployment of the braking system and Type-A ectomorphs present in the vehicle's nitromethane supply. While John Whyte (and multiple nearby spectators) were killed in the immediate aftermath, the event nonetheless inspired other thaumaturgy-aware competitors to begin (or unofficially continue) augmenting their vehicles with paratechnology.

AUSTRALIAN PARANORMAL DRAG RACING ASSOCIATION The Australian Paranormal Drag Racing Association (APDRA, unofficially codenamed 'Snapdragon') is the only P.D.R. organisation recognised as compliant to the Foundation. Established in the months following the 1999 John Whyte incident, the APDRA is recognised by most P.D.R. Groups of Interest as the progenitor of the parasport, and is frequently cited as a motivating factor or catalyst in the formation of other P.D.R. G.O.I.. Following frequent interference due to Operation GLEIPNIR, diplomatic negotiations with the Foundation were initiated in March of 2013 by the APDRA. These negotiations culminated in the establishment of the Snapdragon Treaty, which allows for the APDRA to continue functioning unimpeded (and, under some circumstances, protected) by the Foundation, as long as strict guidelines are followed and extensive monitoring by Foundation personnel is allowed. To date, these terms have been upheld. Snapdragon Treaty (Abridged) Show File Hide File As outlined in the Snapdragon Treaty, the APDRA is authorised to operate uncontested by the Foundation as long as: The APDRA, and all members of it, prioritise the preservation of the Veil above all;

All locations used by the APDRA are reported and registered with the Foundation;

All events held by the APDRA are reported and registered with the Foundation at least two months prior to their commencement;

All members of APDRA, and all competitors in APDRA-sanctioned events, are reported and registered with the Foundation;

All registrations with the Foundation are renewed annually (registrations twelve months or older are considered null and void; registrations must be updated within one week if the information is rendered incorrect by a change in circumstances);

All paratechnology used during registered APDRA events is not used outside of these circumstances;

All APDRA members provide detailed and accurate logbooks (Details of owner, details of crew members, details and source of enhancements, etc.) of their vehicles when requested;

All Foundation personnel functioning in an official regulatory capacity are granted unrestricted, universal free admittance to all events; such personnel can only be ejected and/or banned from events if their official regulatory capacity is rescinded by Foundation liaisons (Foundation personnel not functioning in a regulatory capacity at any time during an event can be charged and/or banned at the behest of the APDRA);

Personnel involved with containing SCP-████ are allowed to utilise it in, at minimum, a single demonstratory race at each APDRA event despite the use of banned paratechnology, as long as containment personnel do not add further banned technology to SCP-████;

That all bans on paratechnology imposed by the Foundation are strictly and immediately enforced by APDRA officials (with penalties including: vehicle impoundment, disassembly and/or destruction; indefinite registration revocation, apprehension, and/or amnestisation of the owner; and/or termination of Foundation-APDRA relationships and the Snapdragon Treaty). Registered Locations (Abridged) Show File Hide File The following is a list of several significant and/or repeatedly used locations registered by the APDRA. Location Name: 9 & 6/4ths. Entry Location: Hidden Valley Raceway, Darwin, Northern Territory. Method of Access: Accessed via a camouflaged extradimensional manifold covering the supporting wall of Pit Bay 10. (Note: This manifold is only accessible from Pit Bay 10. Entrance from Pit Bay 11 is not possible.) When not in use, the manifold is blocked using an installed bulkhead; the locking mechanism, a double-cylinder vertical deadbolt, is composed entirely of beryllium bronze to prevent anomalous tampering. Description: Identical replica of the Hidden Valley Raceway. Entrants emerge from a manifold on the supporting wall of Pit Bay 11. Location Name: Two Blackbutts. Entry Location: Blackbutt, Queensland; Blackbutt, Wollongong, New South Wales. Method of Access: (Accessing Two Blackbutts is currently not advised. See Description.) Accessible by burning a ring of Eucalyptus patens, Eucalyptus pilularis and Eucalyptus todtiana; all objects and entities within this circle will be transported to Two Blackbutts. Description: Location is an immense region of dense Eucalyptus bushland. Entrants spontaneously appear within an artificial clearing, a short distance from the main facilities. As of May 27th, 2013, Two Blackbutts has been designated a high-hazard location due to an alleged hostile enclave of Joogabinna taking residence at the location — no personnel entering Two Blackbutts following this date have returned from the location. Location Name: Lake Gairdner Salt Flats. Entry Location: Lake Gairdner, South Australia. Method of Access: Located 440km north of Adelaide, South Australia. Accessed via normal means. Description: Location is an irregularly-shaped salt lake with a maximum length and width of 160 kilometres and 48 kilometres, respectively. Due to the isolation of Lake Gardner and the low population surrounding it — the two closest locations, Yardea Station and the town of Glendambo, having a collective population of less than 100 citizen — scheduled use of the location by the APDRA is not considered a threat to secrecy. Location Name: 1881. Entry Location: Perth, Western Australia. Method of Access: Accessible via the 'Eternity' Einstein-Rosen Bridge Generator currently stored at Provisional Facility 2439-ARC-EX. Both the Generator and Provisional Facility 2439-ARC-EX will be decommissioned following the conclusion of the December 30, 1881 racing event. Current predicted year of decommissioning: 2366 . Description: Location is the interior of the ‘impassable dome’ (as recorded by Foundation agents) that encompassed the entire city of Perth, Australia during the year 1881 (See: SCP-2439-ARC-EX). Each successive racing event at the location is held on each successive day of the year 1881, and never takes longer than twenty-four successive hours (starting from midnight); because of these precautions, attendees do not encounter past or future versions of themselves, and residents do not inadvertently create temporal paradoxes by surveying information that attendees would not know at their (relative) point in time. While these precautions necessarily limit the number of uses of the location to the number of days in the year 1881, the location has yet to be used more than once each year. (Note: Foundation personnel have already attended the location during December 31, 1881, executing a mass-amnestisation and memory implantation operation upon all residents of the city at that time; this was conducted in order to ensure such residents emerged from SCP-2439-ARC-EX as described in documentation.) Location Name: Castlereagh Dragstrip. Entry Location: Castlereagh, Sydney, New South Wales. Method of Access: Accessed by a topographically anomalous road splitting from Sheredan Road half-way between the Jolly Street and Hinxman Road intersections; the road can only be located when approached from the south, and travels north-west for one kilometre between residential fencing.



Description: Location appears to be the Castlereagh Dragstrip (formerly Aerodrome) prior to its closure in April of 1984, and the subsequent development of Castlereigh, Sydney, New South Wales on top of it. Location Name: Lovecraft's Locker. Entry Location: Unknown/None. Method of Access: Accessible via any functional U-space gateway. Description: Location contains all facilities required for drag racing events constructed and styled in a close-packed minimalist fashion, and nothing else; objects dropped beyond the edges of the location fall until observation is impossible. No forms of natural lighting are present; for all intents and purposes, the location exists within a featureless, otherwise empty void.
