Darkar Rally


The Rally is under way down south, South America that is. Here is a video of Robby Gordon rolling his Hummer in stage 4 of the 2009 rally. TV coverage will be daily on Versus starting tomorrow at 12:30pm PT. At least that's what their web site says, check your TV listings to make sure.

It Versus not verses.

I went down the the Dakar village they've set up to check it out here in Buenos Aires. Lots of fun and everyone is STOKED that they brought the rally back again this year.

Love the way those Rally cars can drive off the road, roll three times come to a stop, they get out roll it back on it's wheels, and take off.
