So in TPM, we're led to believe that in his spare time after he's finished being Watoo's SLAVE, Anakin has the acumen to put together a big assed pod racer and he enters races on his supposed more spare time to try to win. Wouldn't it have been a better idea to have him work away at restoring the speeder Luke had in ANH, maybe the tihing came off Padme's ship and he managed to get it working on the condition he entered a race to try to gain his freedom? And maybe he left it behind on Tattooine because he'd figure he'd be back, that some of Wattoo's scheming ways rubbed off on him, and he was gonna ride the Jedi thing to get off tattooine for a bit and return in case it didn't interest him? The speeder could have been in better condition until Luke got it as the rust bucket we see in ANH. The big ass Pod racer just shows how much of a ditz without any control over her 8 year old son Anakin's mom was.

Luke: "Anything else?"
Vader: "Yes... I want my lightsabre back."
Luke: "uh... it was in my hand when you chopped it off."
Vader: "oh... my land speeder?"
Luke: "i sold it to get a flight to alderan, which some A-hole blew up."
Vader: "right, right... my C3P0 unit."
Luke: "destroyed by storm troopers, he's in several pieces..."
Vader: "hmmm... anything else of mine still abou-"
Luke: "Imperial troops destroyed everythin else on tatooine"
Vader: "i'll bet owen didn't like that."
Luke: "they killed him"
