Do you think it was intentional that other cars knock them around?I want it to be clear, I'm very disappointed that the R didn't finish, but there are a couple of data points to temper the disappointment.
- The Bronco R was reportedly developed in just six months, from sketch to reveal. That's not a lot of time for testing and redesigning things.
- Desert racing on a long course is difficult and invites many opportunities for things to go wrong - of the 204 competitors entered this year, only 132 finished the race, with the DNFs including many full trophy trucks. Nobody is saying that they aren't capable of completing it, just that they didn't do it this time.
- Let's not forget the first thing that went wrong was them getting hit by a trophy truck.
Now, it comes down to their showing in the next outing. They have a year to make improvements and give it another go, and they need to make it count. Otherwise this is the Nissan Deltawing all over again, cool concept but they kept getting punted off the track by other cars during races...
