CharacteristicsEdit

The IPG-X1131 LongTail sported excellent traction and acceleration, able to achieve a maximum speed of 775 kilometers per hour. The pod's cockpit had a circular design, built around a gyroscopic stabilizer ring that rotated at 230 rpm. This ensured the otherwise-unaerodynamic Pod remained stable during flight.

HistoryEdit

Teemto Pagalies piloted the LongTail during the Boonta Eve Classic during the time of the Invasion of Naboo. His pod was shot on the Canyon Dune Turn by the Tusken Raider Orr Agg R'orr. Pagalies survived the crash by having only his two tubines come off and him roll in his pod to safety, and entered the Vinta Harvest Classic in a pod strikingly similar to his LongTail. It remains unknown whether it was in fact his old racer, salvaged and repaired, or a new pod entirely.

Early in the Galactic Civil War was intensifying, a spacer acquired a podracer that looked very similar to the IPG-X1131. This podracer was believed to be a mere replica, and not the same vehicle piloted by Teemto.
