Jan 8th Dakar Rally Stage 6 Race Chat

Join us for the Dakar Rally on Jan 8, 2009 , right here and chat about the action during the 6th stage.Robby sits in 7th overall,only 41 minutes back.

Stage 6 - Thursday, January 8
San Rafael > Mendoza
Connection: 76 km | Special: 395 km | Connection: 154 km | Total: 625 km
The day’s program is once again full of crossings, since the special begins with around sixty kilometers of dunes. The trail becomes easier in the second part, but competitors might well be slowed down by a wide ford that must be crossed with exceeding skill to avoid an extended bath. On arrival at Mendoza, the rally will penetrate the foothills of the Andes mountain range.

I'm going to agree with most everybody else....

I think there is major FUBAR with tracking today.....I'm going to wait on any more of my negative comments until something official is posted...then I'll resume my negativity....

There's something seriously wrong on the course, I think. 41 cars have made it through KM38, but only 11 have passed CP1, most more than a half hour down.

Someone will have lots of 'splainin to do after this...

Been a fun morning to catch up reading on the stage today!!! LMAO several times.

Can't believe I'm learning new geographical terms this Dakar :)
Thank you for explanation on neutralizing too.

Now to sit and wait for all the scoring to relieve itself and see where Robby really comes out today.
