I was displeased with the Swoop racing in Knights of the Old
Republic. You're only racing against times with no other racers on
the tracks. I suppose I shouldn't be surprised, since it was just a
mini-game. But it was kind of fun anyway, I guess.

This is what the Swoop looks like in the game. It doesn't look much
like a traditional Swoop Bike, does it? Nevertheless, these were
apparently what Swoops looked like in the days of the Old Republic.

Note the three different shades of orange I was forced to use. Why
can't LEGO pick a shade and stick wit it anymore? The racing pilot
of this Swoop is your typical dashingly handsome young rogue. Not
the Jeff Gordon type, however. Totally different.

The part of the swoop that you, the player, see the most often is
the back end. Remember, don't hit the gas until the last light is
lit!

These are the positions that Canderous and HK-47 always stand at in
the Ebon Hawk, right in front of your Swoop. Sorry for the lack of
the appropriate Ebon Hawk herself. It would have to be... very big.
I never quite got around to doing such a huge project.
