    The misconception in the future is the force was a mystical entity with a light and dark side. On earth we knew that was just duct tape and spray foam.

    Its like car racing today- sometimes being the best isn’t being technically perfect, but just knowing how close you can push your machine to the brink of failure without actually disabling it.

    There’s an episode of Top Gear where Jeremy Clarkson goes round the Nuerberg Ring in a fast car and boasts about his time. Sabine Schmitz who was a frequent collaborator and Neurberg Ring specialist said it was pathetic and that she could beat it in a van. So they set that up in a future episode - her in a shitty box Transit trying to beat his time.

    She came very very close, although she was off by a fraction of a second.

    The point is that perhaps Anni’s skill was demonstrated because he only drove shit…
