Stage 2 update.

Robby finished out stage 2, 11 minutes and 3 seconds back of stage winner Carlos Sainz (59min-26sec). Robby suffered a minor setback after putting The Monster Hummer in a ditch. Thanks to a fellow competitor Team Gauloises' Raphael Sperrer; Robby was pulled out of the situation that happened 5 KM from the finish. Robby was able to move on and now sits in 18th place overall 18 minutes and 8 seconds back. Tonight they ferry across to Africa and the over 4000 mile battle still left in Africa. Things are looking great for Team Dakar USA.

Stage 3 is a long one, and should open the door for Robby to make up some serious time in the dunes. Expect Stage 3 to swallow up some fellow racers. Also, expect Robby to start 18 minutes behind the first car and make that time up and zero in on the Rabbit.
