2009 Dakar
 

Who knows, maybe the Dakar has a new home in South America for a while to come:

Wonder if it'll have any negative effect on Baja participation?

i havent kept up with dakar in a while last i heard they canceled it last year or was it this year? i forgot because some african countrys where at war blah blah blah terrorist threats blah blah blah same ol africa business!

but is it really permanently in south america that woul dbe so damn kick ass!!!!! people actually own rally cars in those countrys and can partake in the event :laugh:

as for baja, no nothing will ever take anything away form baja its to legendary, hell i think the fact that one of the participants family was killed and another robbed would hurt baja more then dakar moving to the americas.

also it would be nice to see the cars changed around to adapt to the south american arena
