Legal tech, per the unfortunate demise of unlucky racers, was generally salvageable (to a lesser degree anyway) by the locals. If only for ornamental decoration, the inhabitants scavenged this substandard tech to adorn their vehicles, dwellings, etc. Of course some of it too, did manage to survive.

Flyers have an extraordinary amount of tech. Examples: Communications, Life Support (including reclamation tech for reprocessing pilot waste), Composite Materials, Avionics, Propulsion (with types of fuel), Navigation (including short range Radar), Tracking Modules(used by Race Officials to map flyer movement), Computers, Neural Interfaces, Exotic Metals, Low Density Structures, Batteries, etc.

For each alien species in the race, you can expect one (or more) different flyer makes and models. Assuming you have five alien species flying, it's conceivable that each species brings to the table at least three different models, providing a varying wealth of the above technologies, and all considered Legal tech.

Over time, the interest in the planet waned as newer stories occupied the headlines. One such story was the creation of the Intergalactic Races which would serve as a bridge between the varies alien species throughout the known galaxy. The course would encompass many of the base solar systems for many of the major alien races. The Probes saw this as an opportunity to reignite interest in their newly discovered homeworld and petitioned the Intergalactic Racing Committee to consider their planet as a way-point for the race. For a number of reasons (for example: guilt over their exploitation of the Probes, the somewhat newness of the planets (re)discovery, along with the many other recreated creates from the dna store), the planet was added to the course.

Interest in this planet was originally generated when a space (similar to the Voyager) probe was found wandering the outskirts of the known civilized galaxy. The probe not only housed the location of this planet but also a comprehensive bank of detailed genetic models, and many of the models were recreated to build working versions of the planets inhabitants. In particular, life forms were created / modeled after what were believed to be the creators of the probe, and they were later refereed to simply as The Probes.

With automation as it was in the galaxy, rather than The Probes being used as slaves, instead they were replicated more as pets and zoo attractions. But as their numbers grew, so too did their desire for independence and right of self determination. Many died as a consequence of these desires until finally, accords were drafted providing The Probes with a quasi-independence status.
