Flight and Flying

[sith_happened]

"So it turns out that I'm teaching a class on flying," Anakin said, rubbing his hands together and grinning, "which is basically the best thing ever, so I was going through the setting and it has podracing! I did that when I was, like, nine, so it's super easy."

It was not super easy.

"I won't even make you create your own engines," Anakin continued. "A podracer is a tiny, one-being gravity-affected landcraft that gets dragged behind a couple of giant engines," he said pulling up a holo image.. Totally doesn't look like a death trap at all, huh, kids? "It's a big racing sport in the Outer Rim, with lots of bets placed on the winner. Like auto races or horses races, but with more explosions. So I put a bunch of different podracers into the system for you to choose from, then we'll have a race and most of you will probably blow up," he said. "But that's fine. It's not real."

With those reassuring words of wisdom, Anakin waved his hand at the various simulators for the students to pick from.

WTF rat-tail, Anakin.

Listen to the lecture!

[sith_happened]

You are definitely splatting into a wall! Fun!

Practice Podracing!

[sith_happened]

Pick a podracer and give it a few practice runs before the big race. The engines are definitely pieced together with duct tape and baling wire, the turns are incredibly steep and three-quarters through the race Sand People start shooting at your engines.

Fun for everyone!

AND RACE

Anakin, of course, is also participating, and absolutely smokes you all. But he had the advantage of doing this a lot before?

The RNG declares rest of the race winners go like this:
Yang Xiao Long
Jaylah
Peebee
Theron Shan
Sabine Wren
Rufus Shinra
Bobby Drake
Breq
