that sucks.. one of my favorite motor events..

[Frög]

that poor french guy.. saw his sons and friend get killed..

[EJ25RUN]

i cant even explain how important this race is.

an event that brings so many from around the world together only to be taken away by the hands of evil.

i hope those bastards die a slow painful death.

preignite on a suicide bombing or something. those fuks don't deserve to live anyway.

ive just gotten off robby gordans web site.... i was really pulling for him to do well. i think him winning the baha 1000 and years of experience at the dakar were set for a good event. his team was even fielding a second car. but as we all now know, it means nothing.

SUCKS.

It would be so hard to train all year, prepare, and for it to be cancelled.
