Thoughts?

Umm, I miss 59 RW points. Did you take 3g cost for factories? If you did, you can easily change it for better mine or factory efficiency. With 935 factories per 100% planet you can afford paying 4g for a factory. Anyway, here's what I'd do.
Take NRSE and prop at least normal if not expensive. You don't want to research prop up to 16 just for warp-10 engine. With this you'd also get enough points for mines eff +1.
Get more mines, like 10/3/23. With your settings you'll be operating only 900 mines per 100% full planet (450 at 50% hold). When sh.t hits the fan you'll not have enough minerals for serious shipbuilding.

Take En cheap for better shields and defenses. Take Prop expensive: the most you'll ever need is prop-12. Take Elec normal for more reasons:
- you have pen scanners, whose you can trade.
- Obtaining Super comp and jammer-20/30 faster than others gives good advantage.
- Not to mention you have that nasty Flux capacitor at elec-14.
Just a last thought: PGR 6% makes your race quite fast, so it is IMO more suitable for crowded games than for longer-lasting games. The race should work well in any uni density, but OFC the densier the stars the faster it will grow (less lost growth in transit).
