A great result obtained Eliseo Salazar at the end of 29 th in the stage which included the cities of Victoria and Cordoba in Argentina, for the first stage of Dakar Rally 2011 Argentina-Chile.

Team driver Hummer Cero Zero-Speed completed 277 kilometers of competition with mud, dangerous cliffs and steep hills, they did lose some time due to the narrowness of the road, not well suited to the size and power of the Hummer .

"The car goes well, I really felt very comfortable. We lost time twice for something we are investigating: the car stopped us twice in the middle of the race for no apparent reason. We are seeing what to do with it, but should not mean more difficult, "said Salazar. In addition, lost another valuable minutes when he was penalized for speeding in an area that was 50 km / h and went to 60 km / h for a few seconds. That made him lose the place 27 to 29, in which he completed 2 hours, 52 minutes, 57 seconds.

On arrival at the bivouac, located in Campo Ferial de Córdoba (against Chateau Carreras Stadium), the Chilean 327 Hummer said laughingly that "first came to light from the sun to a camp. "

Together with his navigator Steve La Roza, the pair completed the 277 kms. to be placed 29 th in the standings, the best result of Salazar in Dakar.

Tomorrow is expected to stage Córdoba-Tucumán, with 324 kms. timed.
