"It's not whether you win or lose, it's whether I win or lose."


MECH Skill: Podracer Piloting
	Podracing is an extremely taxing sport.  They are very fast and
take all the pilot's concentration.  All tasks in piloting a podracer take
twice the number of rolls to successfully make the maneuver.  That means
that to perform a simple maneuver that would require an Easy Podracer
Piloting result, would in fact require 2 Easy Podracer Piloting results
(add in multi-action penalties).  The vehicle's Maneuverability rating
must be divided (not necessarily evenly) between all these
actions.  Because most racers are moving as fast as they can (3 or 4 moves
per round) they usually have a -2D applied to their rolls to start with.

TECH Skill: Podracer Repair
	Minor repairs and energy rerouting can be done in
flight.  Diagnosing any one problem (unless it is blatantly obvious) takes
one action and taking steps to fix it (if possible) takes another.  These
both add into the total of actions performed while flying.  Some repairs
may take more than one round to fix.



PODRACER STATS--Most stats are the same as with all vehicles except for
the following:
	Afterburner: move; kmh (rounds)
Podracer's can kick in their afterburners and coax about 13% more out of
their pod's engines for a limited time.  The numbers in the "move" and
"kmh" are just 113% of the normal Move.  The number in parentheses is the
amount of time the afterburners can remain on.  After that number of
rounds a warning signal begins beeping.  If the afterburner is not shut
off sometime in the next round, there is a possibility of overheating.

Example: [Afterburner: 319; 921 kmh (3 rounds).  This means that the pod's
afterburner can boost it's speed to 319 m/r or 921 kmh.  It also means
that the pilot can keep his afterburner going for 3 rounds before the
warning signal begins blaring.

	look.  It's also the overall longest racer.

ANAKIN'S PODRACER
	This is possibly the best podracer ever made.  It's overall small
	size means it takes less power to move it.  It has really good
	handling, and Anakin's constant tinkering resulted in his engines
	being the equivalent of full-time afterburners.
