Velocitron was colonized at the height of the Golden age, by cybertronians whose intent was to find alternate energy sources. The planet had been known to have scarce resources from the beginning, so energy efficient designs gained priority over the ones less so. When the cosmic rust plague deactivated the space bridges, the Velocitronians became stranded. Actions were taken to prevent the complete drying up of resources. Regulations were set on what sources can fuel the moving cities and which their inhabitants while the public was convinced that there was nothing to worry about for millions of years to come. The society became more and more involved with itself, and less interested in the happenings outside of the planet.
They willingly cut of all contact with their organic or inorganic neighbours, believing that they would remain unaffected by any war this way. This at least is the view shared by the majority who prefers to see the life as one big race. There is a minority, in particular of those, who do not agree with the status quo and in partiular the way the leaders are elected, the way new policies are implemented or their voices heard, as for any of that they need to win the Speedia race (Through history only one ruler per term is usually obtained – the winner. In case of a draw two would have to rule together.) This group consists of slightly slower vehicle frames, that had not been gifted with ultimate speed or a chance to obtain it. Those of slower alt frames are usually marginalized and ostracized in this society.
Although they have found some ways on how to preserve energy, the velocitronians are yet to realize just how much the high consumption their life style demands, is affecting their reserves. Those who know, have kept this so far a secret. If the secret is out however, or when the reserves become drastically lower, the planet will have to open up to outside influence or face starvation. There is no law, limiting the speed driven, although some have been penalized for driving too slow.
