Robby Gordon’s Hummer H3 Dakar Racecar


Robby Gordons Hummer H3 Dakar Racecar

Sitting in the middle of the GM booth at SEMA is Robby Gordon's Hummer H3 Dakar racer. This tube-frame, carbon-fiber-bodied beast uses a LS7 V8 and sequential gearbox to drive the rear wheels. And it looks utterly bad ass.

Gordon's third place finish in this year's event means he's a real contender for the 2010 edition which starts on January 1.

A true mid-engine design makes packaging spares more of a challenge but leaves lots of room up front for optimizing suspension pick up points. These are certainly the most gorgeous control arms we've ever seen on an off-road vehicle.
