<p>Good points Bp. Sheldon's talent catches my eye. There's something exciting about, "Oh my gosh, look at that kid go!" Per your points - and I agree - he does need to hone his open terrain racing more, before he tackles the big daddies of Baja and/or Dakar.</p>
<p>But I do think that he can kick butt out there too - eventually.</p>

<p>The only way a 2nd car comes to DAKAR (IMO) is if someone shows up with a bag full of money. (See Ronn Bailout and Nasser Al-Aquitter).</p>
<p>But there's no way it'll be Sheldon. See my response above.</p>

<p>RG has solo'd it in the past, but I haven't heard either way on this year's race.</p>
<p>It'd be cool for RG to develop a "stable" of drivers. Hopefully SPEED will continue to grow and can support it. I fully expect Max (RG's son) to be behind the wheel in his teenage years.</p>
<p>Baja is a whole other animal than stadium racing. Not that Sheldon doesn't have extreme talent, but I don't know if baja is right for him...yet. Get him into some BITD races or others like them. Baja is…</p>

Baja is unpredictable booby-traps and dumb spectators(who unfortunatley get killed all too frequently). How would a 16 year old handle hitting someone? Hopefully the first person to put Sheldon in a Baja race puts a co-dog with many many years of experience next to him.</p> @Jeff, yes.

<p>More dream talk. I wish I wish upon a star...<br/> * * * Robby could take two cars to Dakar.<br/>
* * * Creed could drive the second car.<br/>
* * * These cars could be entered into a couple of short rally events, prior to Dakar. To rally-ize the program a bit more.</p>
<p>And yesterday I was predicting NO WAY to new machines. Robby is the man of a 1000 aces these days. Hope he's having fun. I sure have fun watching it all!</p>
