Thanks Mike.

Great drive by RG! .....a perfect recovery to a difficult qual result!

Gas On RG!

Quick question: Is RG learning "stuff" from this truck that he can apply to his Dakar effort? I understand that they are very different vehicles and RG is the reason he is winning, but this truck clearly is a nice piece. Your thoughts?

(I will go back to quietly lurking)

@Kurt, IMO, stuff ,but not from this truggy for DAKAR. IMO,Robby will have RPM guys at DAKAR (just a guess,not fact) so that would be the learning.

I agree with Mike on this Kurt. We are always learning, even when you are the best at what you do. Working with the RPM guys, and getting finishes like this will be building a stronger team for Dakar!!!

These one day races are MUCH different than a Dakar venue. At the end of the V 2 R that race car is USED up, every thing is torn down and "prepped" for the next thrashing. In a multi day run you must balance several factors to stay in the hunt. Power..not too much, cuz, it must be there till the end. Spares...take what you think you need, but not to much to weigh you down. Construction/Engineering....the equipment must be a little beefier to hold up to several days of beating...Its MUCH more complicated than that but thats the basics, hope it helps Kurt.
