New description:

 We want AI and player ships to do furious space races. Implement a system
 (checkpoints or whatever you like) which allows those races.

 [[Image(race.jpg)]]
 A first version has already been implemented, but there are still some
 open tasks:
  * Test if the multi player support works properly.
  * Make the checkpoints easier to handle in xml, by adding a XML-Template
 (for the model and the collisionshapes).
  * Improve AI for spaceraces. Teach them how to boost, how to use force
 fields, space gates and pickups and how to attack enemies.
  * Add a count down before the race starts and synchronize it with the
 "ReadyGo" sound. (note that the player's engine should be turned off as
 long as the countdown hasn't finished.)
