Racetrack was a clone trooper fighting for the Galactic Republic in the Clone Wars. During the conflict, Racetrack abandoned the Grand Army of the Republic, but he was eventually returned to Kamino. Alongside a squad of clone deserters, under the command of Heater, Racetrack was dispatched on a mission to assault a weapons depot belonging to the Confederacy of Independent Systems. While on this mission, Racetrack found himself in a position where he could abandon his unit and desert once more, but instead, he made the decision to go back and assist his clone brothers.
