we don't know for sure but we think we pulled over and waited for Hummer # 2. The VW pulled over to work together as well

Robby either had a problem or he backed off to let EV in the second Hummer catch up. Based on the time differential between RG and EV at KM386, it appears that the latter is more likely the case.

Judging by times it's more likely that they actually changed Hummers (Obviously not likely) than Robby just waiting for EV if he waited EV didn't stop when they met up! time difference is too great.

EV started 16 minutes behind Robby. At KM 386, Robby was 14 minutes 34 seconds slower than EV. At KM 457, Robby was 12 minutes 40 seconds slower than EV. That tells me Robby is ahead of EV, but EV is close behind if Robby has a problem.
