I liked this article, I underlined my favorite part. Great description of the beast that is the Hummer and it's driver.
Robby Gordon put on show at the start of the 2011 Dakar rally
In a long ceremony, which took less public than last year, the U.S. stole the movie vibrating to Buenos Aires with his Hummer.

BUENOS AIRES .- The public had more than three hours enduring the hot sun of Buenos Aires. Gone were the quads and bikes. But in the atmosphere felt like something was missing, the seasoning for a perfect dinner. And we had after waiting so long, when an orange Hummer appeared at the Obelisk.
The strong engine roar that true machine began to be heard several feet before stepping on stage. It was the colossus of American Robby Gordon, dubbed the showman of the world's most extreme test.
And it shows that American really knows. Not only cooled the afternoon with the loud noise of his engine, then climbed the ramp and with two leaps forward in their vehicle got the adrenaline that was missing in the environment.
Is that teammate Eliseo Salazar beats show and embrace as their weapon of struggle, while acknowledging that this year has had to fight for something important.
It was a break in the hot afternoon Buenos Aires that the words of the pilots, had fewer people in the streets last year when it surpassed 800 000. Preliminary estimates indicate that 2011 will have passed the 500 mil."On the way over here there were fewer people to pass, but the obelisk is the same as last year," said Felipe Prohens.
Similar view had the most competitors are no longer novices in the world's most extreme test. Despite that, they lived, they say, a "spectacular evening."
The Chileans were more relaxed now, though overwhelmed by the heat, but soon began looking forward to real competition. From Emiliano Fuenzalida (quads), the first to go through the stage of presentation, to Francis Casale (truck), the last native to greet people, recognized that this activity serves to throw upon the nerves of the competition.
The long day ended around 20:00 pm leaving only the sparkle of vehicles heading north now undertaken and the real race going into the January 5 to Chile.

Robby had the Spanish broadcast in his back pocket from the word go. But, on the Euro broadcast they guy was a little more conservative. He started out with "VW bla bla bla and BMW bla bla bla" and, like an after thought mentioned RG as a long shot or dark horse or something bla bla bla . "He should not be jumping the podium bla bla bla and save your stuff bla bla bla". By the end of "The Show" as he let out a few chuckles, I think he was a Robby fan too. =-)
