Love the "One night, after a frivolous remark in the bar – which quickly snowballed into a strange series of events – I ended up in the position of navigating Robby Gordon on day three of the race." part.

I want to hear the whole story.

OH and go to the next page as well. That is a great story -
"Until 4am, when the security guard saw the suffering and came over to announce in broken English that his cousin could do it. Eyebrows were raised. But 40 minutes later, an incredibly drunk man stumbled in, slurred some words in Spanish and plugged a sketchy stick welder into our generator. He then proceeded to tack the most beautiful bead of welding anyone had ever seen. Baja magic distilled."
