Pod Racing in SWTOR

As many of you have noticed in your many adventures through the galaxy, there seems to be a lot of negative space that could have better uses. Yes, I know, Tatooine is meant to be an empty sand pit, but what if it wasn't? What if there was a stadium in which you could enter to view speeder and pod races, or even enter to compete? I suggest that on some of the larger planets, the developers create these stadiums and maybe even allow for one major event once a month, or whenever they chose. I mean, there is a casino in Nar that isn't usable right now, why not create something that everyone would surely enjoy?

 

Here's the idea:

Custom built speeders

- open up mod, armor, blaster, and other slots (similar to your ship's) to allow a more personal vehicle to race with

- allow slots to increase speed and allow for longer more powerful boosters

Stadium

- set up similar to the capital buildings. has entry walkway that diverts traffic

- a lobby with several screen (like the ones to access your strongholds) that allow you to enter a race, or even bid on another racer (yes gambling)

- stands for people to /chair and watch the race up close. sell tickets at different prices to allow different seats.

 

You get the idea, what are your thoughts? I know it may seem like too much, but it would be nice to explore another side of Star Wars and I think this may be the ticket.

Pod racing would been a great feature, but due to server lags, and various Internet connection speeds, it would be impossible to determine winners, only maybe (time laps), individual timings to beat can be implemented!...

 

Note: Surely Bioware has this on ''wall of crazy''!.

No actually it isn't . The reason being is; a wrong timeline for Pod racing, b it would be more appropriate to add swoop bike racing.
