Did you not watch the Dakar phil? I love that race, I think I still have over half of it on my DVR... I don't know if it was built here, but I do know it's a mid engine buggy with a fiberglass H3 body on it, and he rolled it on stage 2 or 3... Although in later stages he had trouble with "bad gas" My father and I both thought it was interesting the the American team was the only team to get "Bad Gas" and not only once but2 times...The Schlesser buggies kept up with it on the flats... I also noticed most of the Dakar offical support trucks were 80's ..But my favorite is the Truck class(The hummer is in the car class)

Howdy! I hear that "bad gas" is often the result of a diet of lamb tacos!! John
