The main talking point between the Truckies and the other team members has been the travelling time. Almost everybody has been in various airports and airplanes for over 30 hours. The race track certainly produced some interesting racing but we have spent alot of money getting here. Over 30 containers have arrived by ship to Buenos Aires, then a 1400 km overland journey to arrive at Termas Do Rio Hondo.
The teams have been working under tents in temperatures ranging from 5-25 degrees Celsius which has not been nice and everything has been covered in dust which has been blown in by the wind from the surrounding desert.
THE JOYS AND GLAMOUR OF MOTORSPORT !!!!
And now the race is over, it is time to pack everything away again so that we can race in Sonoma, USA. We do have a problem due to the fact that there is not enough time to send the containers using a ship. So all of the cars and equipment will be sent using air freight. This is a very expensive way to get to the next race but we have no option. The Argentina race was a bit of a late addition to the race calender and by coming here, we have to deal with this situation.
