2014 Dakar Rally Stage 1 Robby Gordon Quotes

"I don't know what's going on. We drove it 1,000km down the highway, no problems during testing, but from the moment we started the special, we had vapor lock problems and we had to stop. Then, all the other fluids started to overheat, so we had to stop at least five or six times... At the end, we had stopped for the umpteenth time when competitor no. 390 hooked us up big time and offered to tow us to the end of the special."

"Honestly, it's strange,The car is running fine now, and I'm going to drive it away,but I don't know why this happened. It's weird. We'll have a look at it in the bivouac, although it's disappointing to lose two or three hours on the very first day of racing"

gracias por el comentario, AL final mi ira paso porque ayer si estuve furioso, la mayoría de sudamericanos te siguen y fue como un baldaso de agua fría que nos echaste en la cara, y al menos de los 10 amigos que tenia a lado 8 estaban que gritaban de cólera, ojala este coche responda y el 2015 regreses con el coche ya estabilizado y al menos fiable, y para el colmo de males fuimos bloqueados del twitter y no nos llega las actualizaciones
