Following the events of the Battle of Endor, General Lando Calrissian spearheaded a task that took him to Neskar Station. The purpose of this task was to extract intelligence from Sebulba concerning pirates who were interfering with the trade routes of the Alliance to Restore the Republic. To capture Sebulba, Calrissian and Chewbacca engaged in a battle-racing event with other racers. However, their race was interrupted by the sudden arrival of the Galactic Empire, who attempted to conscript everyone into their ranks. Calrissian successfully rallied the battle-racers to his cause, and working together, they destroyed numerous TIE fighters and inflicted damage upon the Imperial II-class Star Destroyer, which resulted in the Empire's withdrawal. Subsequently, Sebulba, albeit unwillingly, provided Calrissian with the desired information.
