How to WIN the Dakar ....

Post by ChrisF »

been told by a very reliable source THIS is how you WIN the DAKAR :

- use the ever reliable HILUX :cooldude:

- but if you can only get Michelin tires for the Hilux, rather use a common mini ... :punch:

wel Michelin maak/versprei die BFG .... EN die bande het dieselfde tread patroon as die BFG wat ons koop ...


moes ver soek, maar die fotos wat die bande duidelik wys is almal Mchelin - vir 2014.

daar is fotos met BFG, maar dit was 2012 fotos ...

Hulle het BFG gehardloop... die fotos van die jaar se Dakar waar jy die bande se naam kan sien wys almal wat ek kon kry BFG

Het nou op nog 'n foto af gekom en dit lyk nogals of dit Michelin ook kon gewees het maar ek het nou op Michelin se website gaan kyk... hulle wys duidelik dat hulle die Minis se tyres gedoen het, orals fotos van hulle maar nie niks van die Hilux nie

Die mini's het ook pap bande gekry, Nassar het dan 4x pap bande gekry in een stage.
So ek dink dit was maar net 'bad luck' vir Geniel.

Was verseker bad luck ook. Giniel het net gese dat hy nog nooit voorheen so baie punctures gekry het tydens 'n Dakar nie

Eish, that is a sponsorship gone bad:
"Michelin, the tyre that cost Giniel the 2014 Dakar!"

Nou wonder ek net so bietjie, they did thousands of test km before the Dakar, did they not get flats on the test runs. Why did they not realise during the testing that the tyres are not up to scratch?

Pieter in the first two days a LOT of teams had issues they did not pick up in testing - mostly related to the extreme temperatures ....


nou wonder mens of die bande nie te warm geloop het nie ...
