STAGE 1 TRACKING


STAGE 1: LIMA > PISCO

Connection 250km | Special Stage 13km | Total 263km

 

COURSE OVERVIEW

It won’t be long before competitors will be singled out, but for the moment, the mini special stage organised on the outskirts of Pisco will principally be used to divide up the drivers into categories according to their level, who in turn will reassemble during the rally. The initial stage won’t be as stiff as the drink that made the region famous, but the picture postcard landscape is especially appealing. The concentration required over the several timed kilometres will still allow the competitors to admire the scenery. Nevertheless, the light-hearted attitude and relaxed driving style adopted by the competitors during this first day must not mislead them: the Dakar has really begun.


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

Ready to get this Party started! Hope RG brings the W home!

I choose to believe and see the "W" so get the party started with a Kiss my Ass drink: 2oz of malibu,2oz vodka,2oz blue curacao and of course special ingredient 1 12 oz can of SPEED fuel.

and an American Rebel drink: 3oz of rum, 2oz blue curacao, 3oz pineapple juice and 6oz of SPEED Fuel or Ethanol, think that will start the party!!

Nice 155 mile cruise down the coast to the Special to calm the butterflies.
