    It occurs to me that we've never really seen a vehicle chase throw a city/populated area in these films before. Yeah we got a bit of it in AOTC, but that was mostly flying through the air.

    A flat-out speeder or speeder-bike chase, at more ground level, or something along those lines, through this place, could be really cool to see.

    Thing Bullett, or The French Connection, or Jack Reacher, etc, but in space and with speeders instead of cars.

    There's also these:

    Notice in the 3rd that speeder has now moved to the end of the track and is banked with the super-elevation of the track?
    You can also see tanks of some kind of gas. Does this mean the speeder is "powered" along the track?

    Also, in this picture:
    [​IMG]
    You can see the custom made "coaster" mount sitting on the track.

    I'm really interested to see how this turns out in the movie... and do they plan on making the track longer? Because the track isn't very long at all.

    Land Speeder - 24 hours before shoot

    One thing that makes me kinda on edge on this VIII stuff is he cleanliness of the Land Speeder. Are we going back to everything being PT squeaky clean?

    I think we will see that in some areas. Probably places that either flourished for a time in the past 30 years after the Empire was defeated, or from possibly places that are flourishing currently under the First Order.

    Also, are we seeing two different speeders here? There's the tan one that resembles Luke's old speeder (and is color-coded to match his new robes) and then that new pic that appears blue and silver.

    Have any of the cast been seen in the area? I think that would pretty much confirm who will and won't be there.

    Neat! It will be neat to see who else shows up, and what things we'll be able to see and can speculate further.
