Podrace An Iconic Course Returns!: Podrace on Mon Gazza! Looking for Racers, Supports, Spectators, and Sponsors!

[Jax Thio]

Greetings fellow Star Wars fans and Podracing enthusiasts! It's me Jax Thio once again hosting another epic Podracing event! The last Podrace was a massive success with many people participating or witnessing the nail-biting race! Now today, I'm proud to present the return of the iconic course from the N64 Star Wars: Racer: Zugga Challenge on the planet: Mon Gazza. Centuries before the rise of the Empire, Zugga Challenge was considered to be one of the toughest, most dangerous racetracks in all of Podracing with small, tight turns and vicious curves. Nonetheless many Podracers have made their marks on Zugga Challenge such as the mighty: Boles Roor! After it was shut down by the Ratts Tyrell Foundation, Zugga Challenge has become a distant memory until years later when a dedicated Podracing group rebuilt it and hosted the event!

The Podrace will be following the Hoth Ruleset but this there will be some changes in response to the many ties that had taken place on Ossus. The new rules are in the spoiler box below.

[Jax Thio]

For those who don't know, Zugga Challenge is one of the major courses in the classic video game: Star Wars: Racer. Here's a video of what the track looks like:

That's not what that beard says

 

[Cotan Sar'andor]

That's not what that beard says

This beard could easily fit from 27 to 39. And Jason Court was only 33/34 during filming for DF2. It works.
