A Nashal River Race participant
- "Mostly this track has been used for recreation and youth races; very few professional events have been staged here. The course primarily sticks to major waterways around Nashal and therefore is impractical for mount or foot racing. On a hover vehicle, it is considered a delightful afternoon outing."
- ―The race coordinator, to a spacer
The Nashal River Race was a swoop racing competition that was held annually on the world of Talus, in the Corellian system, during the height of the Galactic Civil War.
Description[edit | edit source]
The race curved along the Krisa, Jeassa and Aximia riverbeds, which were located near the city of Nashal. According to the race coordinator, a 3PO-series protocol droid, the Nashal River Race was used primarily for recreation and youth races, with very few professional events having been staged for the track. Given that the track primarily stuck to major waterways around Nashal, it impractical to use the track for mounts or foot racing. However, on a hover vehicle, it could be considered a delightful afternoon outing.[1]
