So I was following that Blastclaw through Maelstrom and met strong pirate forces near the gate to the next sector and the Blastclaw escaped and so did I as the pirates were too strong. I am flying the Advanced Eclipse which can be found, and this is my strongest combat ship by far. My plan was to either get a stronger ship, or improve rep with pirates, or both, but then the Goners sent me after the Blastclaw again, with a 44 minute time limit. I went, met an M7 and was promptly blown up.
