This Star Wars t-shirt shows young Anakin Skywalker ready to enter a podrace with a NASCAR-style checkered flag and racing number 99. In Star Wars: Episode I The Phantom Menace, the Boonta Eve Classic was an annual podrace that Sebulba usually won. By concentrating on the moment, feeling, not thinking, and using his instincts, Anakin won the podrace, and in doing so, was granted freedom from slavery.
