Legend

based on the outskirts of Mos Eisley, on the planet Tatooine, Quick Pit was the name of a starship docking system managed by Pg'lax and his Verpine cohorts during the height of the New Order. Because most of Mos Eisley's docking bays were privately owned and operated, their owners often charged exhorbitant fees from spacers. Rather than paying these fees and cutting into their own profits, spacers could land on the outskirts of Mos Eisley and have their ships serviced wherever they landed by the Quick Pit team. Four A-A5 speeder trucks moved from ship to ship, providing all manner of resupply and refueling services. Because Pg'lax and his team serviced a large number of ships each day, they could charge their clients a much lower fee than the private docking bay owners.
