Night one can reach the highest reaction unaugmented (This is important for later) but honestly any race will do. I slightly discourage races with lower reaction, like ork and troll, since their strengths don't really syenrgize with Rigging besides uh dragging vehicles. That said codedly Control pool is only used for ramming tests (not even flying) so it's not the most important thing.

Most don't work while rigging. So you don't really need much, though a high rating VCR eats up the majority of your essence. Get more if you want to do other things with your meat body.

 For equipment: you'll probably want a Ford bison as a drone command center. And also like, a drone. a Doberman is the most armored one and armor is king for our purposes. Maybe a roto drone to tow it up cliffs. You'll also need an RCD. RCD rating determines the maximum amount of cars you can have, so grab what you feel like. For equipment: you'll probably want a Ford bison as a drone command center.

-After that grab an LMG, Gas Vent IV, top mounted smartlink, and foregrip/underbarrel. strip your gun down and attach your new upgrades. Then buy an Internal Hardpoint for your drone. That's basically it.

-While rigging remember to max out your Cpool into offence, your drone is probably immune to everything they have. Also don't rig in public, if your drone shoots, cops standing next to you might decide to shoot you.+While rigging remember to max out your Cpool into offence, your drone is probably immune to everything they have. Also don't rig in public, if your drone shoots, cops standing next to you might decide to shoot you.. oh and if anything ever strange happens to the load of your vehicle just pop the hood with the pop command, it'll recalculate everything. 
 + 
 +===FAQ=== 
 +Q. The shoot command isn't working! 
 + 
 +A. it's Target, specifically TARGET <Victim> <Mount number> 
 + 
 +Q. Do I need the gun skill or just mounted gunnery? 
 + 
 +A. Just mounted gunnery. 
 + 
 +Q. How do i check the ammo count on my gun? Or change the fire rate 
 + 
 +A> MOUNT while rigged to check ammo count, Mode <Mount number> <fire rate> the default fire rate is FA10. 
 + 
 +Q. I can't shoot into adjacent rooms? 
 + 
 +A. Unfortunately no. 
 + 
 +Q. What do I do about doors? 
 + 
 +A. unfortunately, open them yourself. if the drone has arms they can push elevator buttons just fine though. 
 + 
 +Q. Open them myself! but my body can't fight! 
 + 
 +A. If you "toggle autokill" and leave the mobs mortally wounded, more won't spawn until they die. be judicious with the scan command, and make sure the coast is clear before opening the next door, and probably running away again.
