STAGE 8 TRACKING


STAGE 8: SALTA > BELEN

Connection 373km | Special Stage 393km | Total 766km

COURSE OVERVIEW

The change of terrain which marks the entry into the second part of the rally should also mark a change in programme for the drivers, who will face the first dune sections of the 2016 edition. Experts in dunes crossing will have an opportunity to demonstrate their skills and even gain an advantage. They will also notice the navigational difficulties which have been introduced this year to complicate their existence. Louds of minutes could be lost by vehicles blocked in the sand.


The GREEN section of the route is the connection , the RED is the Special Section of the stage.

i hope he cames back in 2017 with turbo diesel and irs

Jennifer Lawrence has been called out for scolding a foreign reporter who read questions off his phone during a backstage press conference at the Golden Globes on Sunday night.

forget that skank

i dont think IRS is a big deal IMO. But the engine power thing, now thats big. Im one for keeping the solid rear end.

IRS

What good will the tax man do???

LOL

I just hope he comes back. It's fun to watch a talented privateer amongst the hundred million dollar pro teams. Same reason I always liked watching him run the road courses in NASCRAP

Well at least my son is happy (Seahawks fan)

It would be cool to see Land Rover sponsor the Gordini since its looks like the Land Rover Evoque. Then if they have a TD motor, there you go. I might try a little smaller tire and ultra lightweight wheels to regain some power. But again, every good idea comes down to one thing, $$$! So there ya go! $$$

Back to the cash register thing

Yep!

in other news argentina TV was asking RG about his girl friend during the interview.
