I gave up SL somewhere around Cross of Iron.

Then instead of having high speed passes, tell your opponent
that there is a cloud of gas, or gravel, or debris from the last
time he came visiting, and each ship takes 1d6 damage for every
20mu/turn velocity after the first 20.

Or set out a few asteroids and stay where you can hide behind
them when he comes charging through.
