Bio
Planes
Team Ripslinger’s bombastic racers Ned and Zed specialize in sabotage. Lacking the skills to actually outrace the competition, they simply eliminate it, propelling boss Ripslinger to victory every single time. Zed, a rowdy and reckless flier, and Ned, a strange bird himself, may not be the sharpest props in the hangar, but they have figured out how to draft off Ripslinger’s fame.
Livery
Ned and Zed have liveries of colored in opposite fashion: while Ned is painted green with white wings and decorations, Zed is white with green wings. Ned's racing number is #0, while Zed's racing number is #00.
Model
Ned and Zed's designs are based on the Extra EA-300 aerobatic planes, but with the cockpit windows in a different shape. Their wingspans are 20.3 feet (6.2 meters).
Both their Sky Slycer Mark Five propellers are single two-bladed props.
Occupation
Despite the disability to actually fly at high speeds, Ned and Zed still compete, but only to eliminate the competition, boosting Ripslinger's chances of winning.
