EV finished the stage, 6 hours down. He's not out, but is very far back in the standings. Full time support for RG now, as if there was any question about that before.

let rear wheel. At CER is was the left rear hub. Looks like they beefed up the hub, but now the wheel is taking a beating. The video sait the BMW was the fastest production class vehicle at 197 kph, so with Robby going at 120mph (192 kph) is was running speeds at par with the others. I beleive the hummer can go faster, but Robby was conservative due to refueling restrictions. Shorter stages from here on, so he can go full throttle.

So Eric's problem wasn't actually the engine but the bracket on the power steering pump? Is that correct? Shit- no power steering in a COT would suck but no power steering at Dakar would completely suck.
