STAGE 3 TRACKING
STAGE 3: SAN RAFAEL > SAN JUAN
Connection 295km | Special Stage 301km | Total 596km
COURSE OVERVIEW
The competitors of the 2014 Dakar will experience their first taste of the mountains by passing through the Pre-Andes. The Aconcagua Volcano stands 6,962m high and will observe the progress of the vehicles, of which a part will rehearse their high mountain driving techniques. The motorcyclists will climb up 4,300 metres during their special stage, on a ridgeline where they will have the impression of towering over the whole of America! The descent will bring them back to the tough reality of the drivers of the Dakar, as they will only have finished the first part of this marathon stage. They will have to ensure the mechanics for their own vehicles at the isolated bivouac which has been set up for them.
The GREEN section of the route is the connection , the RED is the Special Section of the stage.

Has Robby considered running the Dakar series throughout the year to get the car fine tuned for the real Dakar? The other main teams are doing it. The guy Robby sold his hummer too was destroying the competition before he crashed it hard, he was up by like 3 hours on Day 2. I just think if Robby would race in the series, or even had someone race in the series for him and then run a 2 car team in the Dakar, it would help weed all the bugs out of the system.

I think RG has already full agenda with to much compromise in USA. He is really pushing for SST. I'll like to see RG in Dakar series...

You make good points. Just sucks to see the truck struggling on the opening stages, especially after all the hype over the new truck and how fast it will be. Hope they got the vapor issue figured out.
