He didn't beat a $400k car, he wasn't even in the same event as they were. He didn't even win his class.

Did someone say Beaver fever?

I don't care what place he took or who he beat (or didn't)... the fact that he had the balls to set out and do it is awesome.

dude thats amazing.. even if he only finished 3rd in class that is an amazing feat and mexico is one of the roughest rallies around.. the amount of money it takes to go rally racing is ridiculous and the fact that he managed to even get to run a 20 year old car (most sanctioning bodies including SCCA Pro Rally which used to be composed of all kinds of crazy old beaters like this have banned cars more than like 5-10 years old)..

doing all of that with no crew and a REAR wheel drive car which is basically non existent in rally these days is an epic feat..
