Long ago banned in most civilized systems, Podracing is still famous in the rugged worlds of the Outer Rim, providing a spectacularly dangerous mix of competition and risk to hundreds of thousands of aficionados.

Sebulba's monstrous and intimidating Podracer adheres to the typical configuration of a repulsorlift Pod linked to twin jet engines, although his hulking Collor Pondrat Plug-F Mammoth racing engines and Split-X air/radiator intakes could be classified as being illegally large. It is a credit to Sebulba's well-honed intimidation tactics that his Podracer always passes inspection when race officials demand a close look.
Sebulba has guided his Podracer to victory after victory in the rugged Outer Rim circuit. Although he is indeed a highly skilled Podracer, he has augmented his chances for victory by installing various hidden weapons in his racing machine. In the past, such equipment included a contraption that spat a stream of nails into the faces of the racers coming up behind. Currently, Sebulba favors a flame emitter weapon, which fires from a hidden compartment in his Podracer's engine cowling. Dispatching opponents (without getting caught) is often just as exciting as winning the race for the murderous competitor.
