Dakar fans out there?

[bikerjosh]

So since the removal of the dakar from Africa in 2008, it seems getting TV coverage in the states has gotten worse every year.

Anyone know who or where to watch broadcasts of it this year? The Vs (I think it was versus, with the bimbo chick last year was by far the worst).
Not sure how I can have a Directv system with tons of channels, but can't seem to find good coverage of Dakar. ok, rant off.

Anyone have any sources for video feeds?:hiding:
thanks Josh

I seem to remember Fuel TV covering it last year or the year before.

Freaking love that race.

Currently reading "To Dakar and Back" about Lawerence Hackings 2001 bid; and it has me waiting for the next race.

Yep, the Dakar prepared VW Touregs are pretty sweet, big (I think) twin turbo diesel motors. If all their cars came with a team to due maint. on them daily they would probably be more reliable and popular.

I've owned a few VWs and dated chicks (read-had to work on them) over the years, that the strange random crap that goes wrong with them left me wanting something more reliable.

who watches DAKAR? memememememe. I don't watch the live broadcast or anything but I do download them from a torrent place and watch it later. Its a private tracker which means you need an invite. Its the Eurosport coverage btw.
