So did they build it thinking Ronn Bailey was driving it? hmmm. How much effort do you put into something someone who sued you is driving? The guys with them are top notch and I'm sure it will roll of just a good as RG's.

After viewing Ramse's slide show, it appears all three H3's have the same stuff underneath. Now it would just be a matter of fine tuning the chassis setup.

It's all good stuff. Remember this; those cars are Robby's support. He uses those instead of T-4s. So if they don't finish RG has less parts on track.

Anyone know if they fixed the rear hub issue? After a big jump in the CER it broke then again in Baja...

Yeah, top secret tho.

Basically they were relying on the 14 bolts to support the hub to the trailing arm. Let's just say they are not anymore.

yeah I know I was just showing off my memory. Plus the fact that BJ is the parts truck reminded me that in the CER BJ started ahead of Robby that day and was not able to assist. Could have been worse could have asked it they figured out the problem with the Camel Grass yet...

I am lost here. Robby have 3 Hummers or 2? I thought Carlos was the driver of the second hummer.

Thanks for the info. Wish I have time to keep up with the biz of info going around. So we have 2 US drivers and 1 forgien and all 3 teams are US base teams? Team chile, who sponsors that team? I thought Vanagurad dropped sponsorship after last years race
