Carta Rallye

[Tommy345]

My brother Paul is off to Morocco in a few weeks to take part in the Carta Rallye 2016, he competed in 2015 and loved it, this time he has a few customers going with him to take part in the gps challenge while Paul competes in the cross country class, he will load his 100 up with the trailer and the 90 series, drive to Morocco and then compete in an eight day race covering roughly 2500-3000 kms, the race moves six times i think over the eight days so a co driver and extra driver is needed, should be fun

That looks amazing. I would LOVE to do that, even if I was not to get a drive. Any idea what sort of cost is involved?

 

[Tommy345]

To enter the race it is 2,500 euros, then you have the drive to Morocco and back

[h=3]THE PRICES INCLUDES:[/h]

• 5 nights in hotel in shared rooms for driver and co-driver(s)
• Halfboard on 8 days
• Event participation
• First aid medical assistance during the event
• Roadbook and GPS tracks
• Gift
• Organisation Public liability insurance

 

[StarCruiser]

Presumably that cost is per person, plus vehicle costs, plus support vehicle costs, plus food, plus fuel (and anything else I've missed out[emoji4]).

awesome, seen a few rallyes on my Morocco trips over the years and the 90/95 is a very popular choice.

If you need any advice on Morocco give me a shout

 

[Shayne]

Vehicle requirements ?

 

[Tommy345]

the 2,500 euros is for one vehicle with two people in it. Vehicle requirements depends on witch class you would like to enter

 

[Tommy345]

Any idea witch rallyes you have come across Mark? this will be Pauls fifth trip out there and second time racing there, he was fortunate eought many years ago to get an invite out there from BF Goodrich tyres to have a ride about with Luc Alphand in his Dakar preped Mitsubishi Pajero EVO

The racing in Morocco is good fun, i love the place can't wait to get back there. We have built about 5-6 rally bikes that have been and raced the Toureg and Merzouga rally, i also have a WR450F rallye bike that competed in the Dakar rally in 2010
