Why do people keep coming back?

The driving is only one part of getting through a rally like this.

A service team takes care of many of those jobs for you. You still have to drive, navigate and get yourself to the finish - but you can spend your limited time at camp recovering and preparing instead of organising everything yourself.

Every evening in camp, the clock starts ticking again.

Your vehicle may need attention, you need food and rest, equipment needs to be prepared and everything has to be ready for the next stage.

That means one major logistical problem you don’t have to solve yourself every day.



The best thing waiting at camp might simply be a place to sleep.
