 No synchronization would only be an issue if I actually had the network in my
BGP table but it wasn't being installed in the main routing table. My problem i
s that I don't even have the network in the bgp table. I fully understand that
IGP needs to be running in order for R1 and R3 to peer via R2. Even without an
IGP running R2 should still tell R1 and R3 about all netwoks it is connected to
 that have the corresponding network statement in its config.
I checked for typos in the config and did not find anything.

1 that he wants to be propagated to R3 and vice versa with networks from R3 bei
ng advertised to R1, he'll need to add the neighbor next-hop-self command. I've
 done scenarios similar to this one, but in those cases I've had the IBGP peers
 directly connected to each other, rather than having one router go through ano
ther in order to peer. If disabling synchronization doesn't work, then the only
 other all BGP solution I can think of would be to make R2 a route reflector.

I don't think his scenario will qualify as a race state, because BGP was never
depending on an IGP in the first place. Unless I misunderstand Halabi, a race s
tate occurs when BGP has its IGP pulled out from under it. Jason, will you plea
se let us know if putting a no sync on all 3 routers fixes things?

This is what IGP's are for. Turn up your favorite, advertise link/loopback
addressing and make sure to set update-source loopback0 (assuming you are
peering via loopbacks)
