I'd really like the pods to stay. Not the race (as it stands) but the design of those hot-rods is the ONLY thing I like in all the PT. I'd change the race though from a NASSCAR type event with a little boy and a bunch of silly cartoon racers to a smaller, shorter illegal drag race with a teenaged Anikin showing his piloting skills as well as a little force usage in his own custom hot-rod.

Actually, I still don't believe the PT can ever be changed into anything I'd ever want to watch, so I'm not to bothered by what stays or goes. I believe Ady at one time summed up my feelings about this perfectly.. something along the lines of "You know what you get when you take mud and add clear, clean, purified water? More mud."
