COURSE OVERVIEW
During the short special stage which will establish definitively the competitors' final rankings, the tracks and the small dunes should be enjoyed but not overlooked. The time issues are now insignificant and the pleasure of finishing the race will gain the upper hand. The heroes of the 2012 edition will be able to count on a celebration in the heart of the capital that is on a par with their emotions. Those who have successfully survived the adventure will realize all of the difficult moments that they have endured along the way. The challenge has come to end, but the sights, sensations and the souvenir of an exceptional life experience will remain.

TOG, thanks for a great 2 weeks and your dedication to running this site. Keep up the good work!!
Can you all imagine what it will be like when RGM has all of there motorsports doing as well as the Dakar stuff? We will rule the world. GAS on RG and RGM.
Super good job by all involved.
Special thanks TOG
great job for RGM. They have done a heck of a job with there Dakar program. Good luck in the desert and nascar this year. Anybody know what robby's next race is?
Did RGM have anything at Laughlin this year?
Thanks TOG for all your work. Thanks to Team SPEED. Robby, your the show for sure. Everone at ALL-SK8.
Thanks TOG for making this happen for so many fans!!!
Like wise - Great job / thumbs up to Robby & RGM, and also to TOG and his team.
Also so true - without RGM - this would have been a very boring race.........
Also noticed Robby's finishing quote: "We may be back". Wonder if this was said out of overall frustration, or maybe a hint that nothing is cast in stone. Does cost RGM big bucks to do this race.
And in the "would be boring wighout the Hummers" thoughtline - we know the local organizers also realize the interest that Robby brings. Hope they work to bring RGM back, not send him off like ASO is likely to do.....
Just some final thoughts.
After some past disappointments for an exciting driver, things finally come together for Robby in ways for all the world to see. What next year will bring is open to question, but these last two weeks were a great ride for Robby, for us here on The Planet, and for all the locals on the scene in South America who made a brash outspoken guy in a loud orange truck from the States their hero.
