Toy Dampner preferred to race in a speedy Turca 910 Special Podracer — also known as the Turca Special — which had been heavily customized to suit the courses on Oovo IV . The 910 Special was known for its traction , which allowed the Podracer to work well on otherwise slippery terrain . In addition , the Podracer had a powerful accelerator that allowed Dampner to reach his top speed quickly , although the Turca actually suffered from a low top speed . The vehicle also had notably poor handling . However , Dampner ' s Podracer was equipped with an on - board engine repair system , which allowed the Podracer pilot to repair his machine on the fly when racing on twistier and more damaging courses . The 910 was also renowned for its thrusters , which could propel Dampner beyond his vessel ' s top speed . Although 910 Special Podracers were notorious for poor cooling systems , which caused the vehicles to overheat too quickly , Dampner acquired the best coolant pump he could find to remedy the fault . Dampner ' s 910 Special was white with black stripes , a color scheme that matched the color scheme used on the flag that Dampner used to represent himself with in the sport . When racing , the only clothes Dampner wore were pants , shoulder pads , and a bandolier . Behind the scenes .

Dampner ' s Podracer made it as far as appearing in an animatic for the film ' s Podracing scene , but was cut from the film before release .

McCaig ' s design for Dampner , with some differences including a different hair color , was then incorporated into the 1999 tie - in video game " " .
