Ben Neluenf was the first great Tatooine-born Podracer. He lost his life attempting to scale a large mesa that was later named Ben's Mesa, as a tribute to him.
His son, Will, who followed in his footsteps, participated in an illegal Podrace on Euceron during the Galactic Games of 26 BBY. Will battled Hekula, Sebulba's son, and then 14-year-old Jedi Padawan Anakin Skywalker at the Great Dordon Caves during the Eusebus-based Games. He finished third among a lineup of contestants that included Ody Mandrell, Aldar Beedo, Gasgano, Elan Mak, and "Scorch" Zanales.
Skywalker won the race on behalf of the children of Ratts Tyerell—Deland and Doby, whose podracer Anakin piloted to free their sister-slave Djulla from the clutches of her master, Sebulba.
