910 Special

Legends. This article is part of Legends: the expanded-universe stories that Lucasfilm set apart from canon in 2014.

The 910 Special was a Podracer model manufactured by Turca. Also known as the Turca Special, the Podracer had well balanced capabilities, including a good top speed, a modest accelerator, and well tuned repair unit. The Podracer also had decent handling, but suffered in terms of cooling, which caused the Podracer to quickly overheat during extended bursts of speed. The Podracer's best native feature were its air brakes.

A heavily modified 910 Special was owned by the Podracer pilot Toy Dampner. In order to combat the vehicle's poor heat prevention systems, Dampner installed the best coolant pump he could find, allowing the 910 to cool down faster after using the vessel's booster. Dampner used his black and white Turca Special to great effect on the race courses of the moon Oovo IV, which sped through a penal colony.
