Gasgano/Legends

"If you give him the option of ignoring you, he will. If you don't give him that option, you're in trouble." So Beed has said about the four-armed Xexto pilot Gasgano. Easily ranking among the most famous Podracers in the galaxy, Gasgano was one of the deadliest fiends on the track... but only if you got him angry. Otherwise, he'd just fly by you, totally focused on getting to the finish line first instead of bullying other racers around. Gasgano's custom-built Ord Pedrovia placed a heavy emphasis on acceleration, helping him take the lead in the critical early seconds of a Podrace. The Xexto had little patience for humans and often condemned lesser pilot Anakin Skywalker as a rookie wannabe, while at the same time being impressed that the human boy had ever dared to strap himself into a Pod in the first place. Gasgano championed Gardulla the Hutt, although she was far from the only spectator who bet on him; many predicted Gasgano would overtake Sebulba in the Boonta Eve Classic. While Gasgano placed second behind Skywalker in this race, Sebulba's defeat and subsequent temporary loss of dignity provided the Xexto with an excellent chance to further his own career as a Podracer. Not bothering to rest from his partial victory in the Boonta, the competitive Gasgano quickly moved on to other races, and soon became the favorite pilot on the barren Podracing moon of Oovo IV.
