I am very dissapointed that the 327 did not stop to help Robby, we all can see on the interview hes PiOff by 327 not stopping. It would be expected by all of us that even if 327 had not had the spare part to stop and take the needed parts from 327 and put them on 303 for him to continue and have 327 wait for the spare parts. Now Robby is out and that's a shame. Dakar is pretty much over for me.

I tend to agree with you about the 4wd issue particularly in regard to the wrc type sages. The 327 WAS the water carrier. That's why they had the spare parts and the 303 didn't. The primary doesn't carry them because of weight (replying to shawn)

<p>i like his style but do have to agree with you. I did see a video where he was talking about the problems and made mention of the 327 passing and having the spare part. My thought is why the hell not carry one in both trucks...</p>
<p>Beside that though... I think that 4wd would be a great help. maybe a chevy or just some good backing from GM to help front some of the bill.</p>

I know it's $$$$$ but in this kind of race RG should have a 3rd entry just as a water carrier for these kinds of problems. Ya it's racing but you have to cover yourself for anything that can happen. To come all this way and have no back-up is foolish, you have spent all this $$$ now nothing...it is a pity. After listing to all the posts I get the feeling with this new car there wasen't much testing. Trans pump issues...explain that to me. This isn't RG's first rodeo plastic gears ? I have…

After listing to all the posts I get the feeling with this new car there wasen't much testing. Trans pump issues...explain that to me. This isn't RG's first rodeo plastic gears ? I have followed RG for years throgh all types of racing I am not a hater but discourged. 1000 & 500 driveshaft & trans issues seems either RG has to back off a little to finish I know it's not his style. The only way RG can be competive in the Dakar for 2012 is go to a 4wd platform. He gives up to much in the WRC part of the course and now he has to try and make up the time. Ya not his "style" but if he is going to be competive with the factory teams he has to.

Still anxiously awaiting some good word.....what is the the latest? I see the Planet banner changed. I think that is a bad sign, huh?

Yep, he's definitely not disappointed by the #327 driving by(if that's what really happened); He's F'n livid. In all truth no one here knows what happened(as usual). Hope for the best, be prepared for the worst.

<p>What if his his team coud'/nt get him the hub? Is that on his crew chief? Doesn't seem so. You know in racing, things happen, and then things go bad. You know? Sometimes it just goes bad. That's racing. - I'm sure you all know that. Yeah. sure.</p>

<p>Not really sure if he is disappointed about being missed by the 327 or the sweeper. If he paid for space on that ASO truck and they passed him by, THAT could be the grounds for appeal and running tomorrow. Hope for the best.</p>

Ok, wait for tomorrow. I saw the RG interview posted on FB and Twitter and RG looked POed about the 327 passing him by. Maybe there is a better explaination?! We will see in the morning.
