Wentar will match their speed.
"This smells like a trick..." He'll stay alert and ready to speed up if the thieves decide to take off again.
Am I too far away to use Scan on their driver? To see if he's planning to take off or if they really are stopping here.

Too far away. The speeder is continuing to slow and is positioning itself in front of you.

"What are they playing at?" Wentar wants to move so they're no longer right in front of him, airspeeder equivalent to lane changing or something.
He may only have a pool of 4 but can Wentar make on observation roll on them?

When you shift over, you catch a glimpse of what they are doing in the car. They seem to be reaching for something below their seats in the back. And then they pull back in front of you.

Wentar frowns, not liking this one bit. He speeds up, wanting to pull up beside them before they grab whatever is below their seats.

The driver is doing his best to keep in front of you, and soon you figure out why. The two in the back have pulled out blaster rifles and aim them at the wire holding the stolen speeder to theirs.

Wentar will push his airspeeder to top speed, aiming to go around and get in front of the thieves. Using the fact he's not towing a second speeder to his advantage.
Would it be feasible for Wentar to jump onto their speeder if he were in front of them?

Feasible, but you may need to give Quinto warning before leaping out of the driver's seat...
Pulling around them proves to be difficult when the driver keeps cutting you off. The thugs in the back seat line up shots with the wire and blast the stolen speeder free. Since you are catching up behind their speeder, this causes the fancy hovercar to come careening straight for you!

"Hold on!" Wentar orders Quinto.
I want to dive down to avoid the hovercar, then get back to chasing the thugs.

The driver rolls two successes against you, but you roll three in return! Your evasive action is good and the fancy Guster sails past you and into traffic where it inevitable causes some problems. But Wentar is in the clear!
As far as the car goes, anyways. Now he has other concerns as the three thugs with the blaster rifles start firing off lasers at your airspeeder, trying to damage it.

The Driver and yourself are both piloting speeders and can take evasive actions against shots taken at your respective vehicles. Each speeder has an Armor value of 1.
Quinto is reaching for a case in the back this turn.

Wentar is going to evade until Quinto gets, what I am assuming is, his gun. "And now it's a shoot out... This is going brilliantly," Wentar sighs.

Wentar takes evasive action as the shots start pouring in! Bolts zip past when they miss or flash against the hull of the speeder when they hit, as the speeders continue to descend deeper into the lower levels.
Wentar rolls only two successes against the mooks, but this means that the first misses completely. The second rolls three successes for four damage, and just one from the third, for two.

And yes, Quinto is grabbing his gun, which turns out to be a sleek sniper rifle.
"Shooting to disable!" Quinto tells you, indicating the speeder's engine.

"Just tell me when you want me to keep her steady," Wentar says, evading the fire again this round.

After rolling an inordinate amount of 2s, Wentar gets another two successes.
Quinto gets initiative! He lines up his shot with the rifle and cuts loose a bolt towards the aft of the speeder. He has a pool of 8, boosted to 10 by the accuracy of his sniper rifle doubled by Marksman, brought back down to 8 by. He also decides to tap Eagle Eye so that each success does two points of damage. He impressively gathers seven successes, meaing his single shot does 17 damage to the speeder as it slams directly into the rear thrusters. It starts trailing black smoke.
Thanks to his evasive flying, Wentar's speeder only takes three damage. A bolt flashes and burns a neat hole in the windshield, but that is all.

"You sure your not a Jedi?" Wentar jokingly asks, still trying to dodge the incoming fire.
Is their speeder slowing up at all?

It does seem to be slowing a little...
Wentar pulls through a bit better this time, getting five successes on eight dice.
Quinto gathers initiative again, tapping Marksman for a ten-dice attack. Only four successes this time, one of which is discounted by evasive flying from the other speeder. Five damage still leaves it in pretty bad shape, though.
All of the carjackers miss!

"Pretty sure," Quinto says.
The smouldering speeder is descending towards what appears to be an abandoned speeder garage, and it is descending fast. It will reach it in a turn.

"We should let them land, we don't want to cause any more destruction if we can avoid it."
Wentar will speed up and attempt to land his own airspeeder before them.

The driver of the other speeder performs a very haphazardly landing that involves several thuds along the landing platform, skidding along it, and smashing against the enormous blast door that covers the main vehicle entrance to the speeder garage.
When Wentar lands, the gangsters have pulled themselves out of their now-burning wreck and are taking potshots while making for a doorway.
Quinto ducks down in the speeder as bolts explode nearby, then takes a look about the place and shakes his head. "Oh boy. Know this place at all?"

"Nope, why?" Wentar asks, unclipping his lightsaber from his belt.
Is there time for me to yell at them to freeze with something intimidation roll worthy before they make it to the door?

Nope, they've made it through and shut it behind them.
"We've been keeping tabs on this place," Quinto says as he hops out of the speeder, tactical rifle in hand. "If they came here... these carjackers aren't a lone operation. Know anything about the Stardusters?"
Savoir-Faire check... Wentar does know a little. The Stardusters are a group of young men not content with the way the Galaxy is, but they do not see things righting themselves so they want to ruin it further. They steal, they smuggle, they kill. They aren't nice people.
"This is, we suspect, their headquarters," Quinto says. "We'll need backup if we're right."
