Starlight Run (Im Ny)

A Starlight Run was hosted on Romakka Nebula Station in the Calzag system during the Galactic Civil War. Smugglers Han Solo and Chewbacca returned to defend their title after winning a previous race. Three other racers participated: Human Imperial Starfighter Pilot Roby Kerrid in a TIE striker, Gran Im Ny piloting a Delta-7 Aethersprite-class light interceptor and a Bith pilot in a BTL-A4 Y-wing starfighter. The pilots had to navigate through the moon Hyban, avoiding floating asteroids. When the Millennium Falcon pulled ahead, Kerrid attacked the other two racers, leaving the Bith stranded inside the moon and damaging Ny's ship. He then caught up to Solo and the two started fighting, fueled by a rivalry dating back to their days in the Imperial Academy. Despite his starfighter’s barely functioning engines, Im Ny took advantage of their distraction and crossed the finish line first, winning the race.
