The 330 looks perfect for G2 if we need it.

Hello Planet,
Once again it is that time of year that we all wait for.
It sure would have been nice to hear this year that there would be at least 1 team mate, "would prefer2 or 3", but we will have to wait and see if the New Year Wizards can sprinkle some good dust the Gordini's way.
Without at least 4 cars on a team anymore it is going to be real tough to win the overall but we will keep the dream alive as long as Robby attempts to compete.

Race On!!

TOG how many support trucks 1 and the Trailer rig?

This was mentioned on RDC has anyone thought about these drivers in the 2nd Gordini
Has it been said anywhere that it is an American or SCORE driver? While I think it would be great to see Tavo or Kyle Leduc in the 2nd Gordini I have suspicions it will be an Australian driver.
List of potential candidates: Toyo Tires Australia - Team Toyo

I would guess Billy Geddes or Brad Gallard. I would also think maybe Toby Price who has Dakar bike experience might be a possibility. All 3 have ties to the Aussie SST series and Geddes and Gallard have trophy truck racing experience.

I believe they also mentioned ZHOU Yong (CHN) at RDC too. Is he a Toyo guy?

Toby Price is racing the #3 KTM ... I still have my fingers crossed for Tonka Todd ... in an Arctic Cat Gordini

With TOG's shipping update, I believe Sandy is tracking the wrong ship

Jeje Mike, that's precious ... more than likely, you're more than right ... leave it to my Robby ... to take the slow boat from China ...

the ship may have been the ASO's pick ?
