The Zugga Challenge was a podracing course located on[1] the Mid Rim[2] planet[3] Mon Gazza.[1] Between 4 ABY and 34 ABY,[4] the Spice Runners of Kijimi carried out a heist on Mon Gazza, during which they were forced to outrun a New Republic patrol through the old Zugga Challenge course. The course shared its name[1] with Zugga Entertainment, a company involved in podracing.[5]

- ↑ Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker: The Visual Dictionary establishes that the New Republic took part in the heist on Mon Gazza. As Star Wars: Timelines dates the New Republic's formation to 4 ABY and its destruction to 34 ABY, the heist must have taken place between those two years.
