Vengeance (Oovo IV)
From Wookieepedia, the Star Wars wiki.
Vengeance was a podracing course on Oovo IV and the sixth race of the Amateur Podracing Circuit. Providing most of the entertainment for the prisoners of Desolation Alley, this dangerous race gave racers a unique experience of flying free of gravity through the gravity tubes.
The race begins with a crescent-shaped arena, which immediately throws racers into the depths of Oovo IV with a run through tunnels at high speeds with dangerous girders in the center. Then, the machines race along a long bridge which opens up to the searchlights of Desolation Alley, looking for any escaping convicts. Soon after, pilots are forced to navigate through giant fan blades at over 600 mph. Not long after, they are then sent through the first of many anti-gravity tubes, which are littered with raw ore. Soon, the tube opens up to a massive room with free floating ore: the reactor core of the vicinity. The filament would sever the magbeam holding the engines together, so racers must dodge this, and reenter the tubes. Again, they open up to massive towers, which racers must dodge or pay an excess amount of collateral damage, which may include their life. Another shot from the anti-gravity tubes and racers are shot out back onto the surface, where they must navigate the straightaway back to the arena.
The avenues which divide the cell blocks are very wide, so racers with high top speed and cooling ratings would excel on this course.
