Many individuals who are down on their luck or fallen from grace would love a second chance. The high profile of working on the winning Lightyear 3000 vessel could be that chance. Your away team has recruited several disgraced individuals to work on the entry vessel for the Lightyear 3000. They are grateful for the opportunity to redeem themselves. Your away team finds that these individuals are unable to integrate with Starfleet officers to work on a Lightyear 3000 entry vessel, due to prejudices on both sides.

The Maquis aren't against a little fun, but like Gabrielle Burnham, want to make sure it's for a good cause. Find entrants who will agree to donate the prize winnings to charity or fund research. Your away team has secured promises from several entrants that, if they win, will earmark the prize winnings for charity. Your away team has been unable to get any entrant to promise to earmark the prize winnings from the Lightyear 3000 for charity.

Temporal displacement could prove a means to victory in the Lightyear 3000--or a means to resolving the temporal anomaly crisis as a whole. Promote this theory in order to promote research on the subject. Your away team successfully inspires a team to enter the Lightyear 3000 utilizing temporal displacement as a means of winning the race. Efforts are ongoing to convince the judges this wouldn't be cheating. Your away team is unable to convince anyone that temporal displacement could be a viable means to winning the Lightyear 3000.

Set these researchers up to continue their work, and hopefully help your performance in the Lightyear 3000. Your away team has set up several researchers to continue their otherwise illegal work. They promise it will help in the Lightyear 3000 -- or at least help the galaxy in general.

The spore drive is considered by some to be the best propulsion system, but it has one flaw in that it needs a dedicated organic pilot. Find individuals willing to volunteer in the hopes of furthering spore drive research. Your away team has found several brave volunteers who want to follow in the footsteps of Wright, Yeager, and Stamets and become spore drive pilots. Your away team has been unable to find anyone willing to attempt the dangerous and possibly fatal role of spore drive pilot.

Several communities could use technology to improve their way of life--if it didn't violate the Prime Directive. They believe these communities could help someone win the Lightyear 3000, if they get the help they need in return. Your away team has smuggled technology to needy pre-warp communities, in exchange for manual labor towards an entry vessel for the Lightyear 3000. Your away team balks at violating the Prime Directive and risking their careers just to win a race.

Medicine Lightyear 3000 judges might be more inclined to hand you a victory if they knew they could count on you--or Starfleet--for a favor in the future. Ensure such a thing would be possible. Your away team has called in several favors within the Starfleet hierarchy, and promised to pass them on to Lightyear 3000 judges--if you should win. Starfleet is busy enough as it is, and promises no favors to your away team in the future--meaning they cannot be passed on to Lightyear 3000 judges.

Slug-O-Cola is the primary sponsor of the Lightyear 3000, and you can buy even more goodwill with them if you agree to visually display your loyalty across the hull of your entry vessel. Your away team plasters the hull of your entry vessel in advertisements for Slug-O-Cola. You receive much early press as a result. Your away team gets several details of the Slug-O-Cola branding wrong, angering the company rather than flattering them.

If the Grand Nagus was seen by your entry vessel, it would be seen as tacit approval. Maneuver Grand Nagus Brunt to be near your vessel, and make sure it gets press. Your away team lured Grand Nagus Brunt to your vessel with the promise of a lucrative business deal. The photos of the Grand Nagus grinning and holding a thumbs up next to your vessel cross the galaxy. Your away team is unable to come up with a plausible reason for Grand Nagus Brunt to visit the building site for your entry vessel.
