Just because I want to chime in:
The race that won RWIAB was:
PRT - IS
LRT - IFE, RS, ISB, OBRM, NAS
(Cancer didn't have OBRM?)
20% 1in3 wide hab
1/1000 5/25/5 11/3/15
en, we, con cheap; prop normal; el, bio expensive
IFE/ISB is a great combo for fast early starts, however no immunity hurt that a lot, the worlds I found at the start were very poor. I'd probably skip IFE or ISB in a redesign.
20% growth on an IS is very nice.
My race was designed to be a bit slower, but bigger later, wide hab helped the bigger later, as did the better mines and 20% growth (at the end of the game I had 300% pop everywhere).
For the beginning and middle part of the game my race was at the middle of the pack (and Cancer was #1 from fairly early on till I passed him in the 2490s), It wasn't till very late that I was able to get 200% pop on most worlds that I was able to catch up.
Cancer was clearly designed to be a fast starter, and did that very well.
