Default USA Dakar.com

Looks like another good source of information for following The Dakar has just come on line.

usadakar.com

This is Mark Miller's site, and will definitely add to our ability to follow what's happening during The Dakar. Mark will be providing audio updates on the site which were my favorite when he last raced The Dakar.

So with daily half hour TV, real time GPS tracking, daily updates on Team Dakar USA and USA Dakar, along with a couple of Euro web sites, we might be able to have some inkling as to what’s really going on. Naw not really, but it is getting better than before.

Very Cool Craig. I didn't know the site would be up already. I Just landed in London and of course I check RDC right away. I am on the way to the VW Race HQ for a briefing and then Monday the team will be at the factory in Wolfsburg for an official departure. Wed. I will be in Madrid for the function test of 309. Rory was busy so Dirk had a special German guy do a shirt design that looks pretty good. Maybe I can get someone to post it? I'll check in when I can before the start. Christmas in Lisbon.

Talking Re: USA Dakar.com

The design looks great! Do either of you guys have a contact for the guy in Germany? I am trying to get a new shirt done for Laughlin but my new design has been delayed. I backed tracked the distribution chain and I am being told that I am lost somewhere in Bullhead City? Sounds like good catfishing, anybody no where it is?

As far as I can tell, the official Dakar tracking site is not up yet. eurosport.co.uk/ has great interviews, and last year they gave pretty good race analysis. I’m still digging around as ther is a ton of Euro coverage. However, some of the Euro sites I used last year are no longer up, so I’ll post links as I find them. RG's site is supposed to have daily updates, but I don’t think he’ll have the audio/sat phone call in like Mark does.
