* ConvectionSchmonvection: Subverted. In a couple of the Baroonda courses, you have to race through an active volcano with lava pools every which way. Fortunately, the anti-gravity engines of the Podracers prevent you from outright falling into and being dissolved by the lava, but if you float on top of the lava for too long, your Podracer's engines will be set on fire and explode within less than a minute unless you get back on the path and make quick repairs. Your engines won't spontaneously burst into flame, either.
