That Hummer Buggy is better than the one he ran last year. I am hoping Carlos Sainz, the retired WRC world Champ can pull it off this year, so close last time they ran the Rally Raid in Africa.

Patrick Carpentier suprises in qualifying. 12th in Cup and I think 7th or 8th in Nationwide. He has been impressive considering his total lack of experience and poor equipment.
