LOCAŢIA:
Comuna Boşorod, sat Ursici, judeţul Hunedoara - Munţii Sureanu
N45 36.210 E23 05.109 (caută pe maps.google.com)
Comunitate izolată la peste 800 de metri altitudine. 20 de gospodării, 95 de persoane din care 11 copii. Fără biserică, electricitate, apă curentă sau măcar îndestulătoare. Şcoala într-o cabană de bârne, o sală de clasă micuţă cu trei pupitre de lemn - din când în când au şi învăţător.

25 de maşini şi peste 50 de oameni au dus la bun sfârşit această expediţie.
Am pornit din Deva în dimineaţa de sâmbătă, 20 decembrie, cu maşinile încărcate cu alimente de bază (zahăr, ulei, orez, făină, paste etc.), dulciuri şi condimente, haine şi rechizite pentru şcolari, diverse alte lucruri utile într-o gospodărie (vase, mănuşi pentru lucru, saci de rafie ş.a.)
Spre după-amiază am ajuns în sat, iar pe seară am terminat de distribuit produsele - câte un sac plin pentru fiecare sătean.
Suma pe care am avut-o la dispoziţie pentru desfăşurarea evenimentului a fost strânsă în cea mai mare parte din contribuţii individuale ale participanţilor, dar şi din câteva donaţii din partea unor companii: Kandia, Henkel, Overall, Rostar, Europa FM, Pepsi, Paste Dobrogea, Dacoda.

Le mulţumim tuturor celor ce au contribuit la acest eveniment pe care îl dorim reluat anual, de Crăciun dar şi de Paşte, pentru a ajunge la comunităţi izolate care au nevoie de atenţia şi consideraţia noastră.

Updates on the main site

We are planing to do some updates on our main site. For the moment we added the photos and video of TAT2008, soon will follow some new magazine articles (see Media).
In January, if you are on the list for TAT2009, you will be able to create an account an log in to your personal page on our website and edit your registration info. It will be very useful for us in case you change something (team mates, data about the cars). You will also be able to upload photos.
In the near future we will make an internet group (on yahoo groups) where all the past and present competitors will be invited.
But all this after the holidays.

Usually we make the announcements about the next edition in January or February.
All we can tell you for the moment is that it will take place in the same area as always (Deva and the surroundings), it will start on Sunday and finish on Friday afternoon.
Ah, and the dates
- arrival: Saturday 4th of July

Our friends, the 4x4 doctors

E.M.A-Emergency Medical Assistance is a nonprofit organization founded by an enthusiastic doctor, Dr. Emanuel Baciu, with the purpose of implementing a project that can help us, the people around us and can also improve the medical assistance provided in special, extreme situations.

It’s main goal is to equip an off-road car with medical equipment (an off-road ambulance) and to provide medical assistance, support and transport (for persons, medical supplies, food etc.) for people living in isolated mountainous areas, where the normal ambulance cannot reach.

They are raising funds now for a 4x4 ambulance, if you are interested you can see more on their website and maybe make a small (or large) donation for the cause.

You saw them during this year's edition taking care of the wounded (thank god, they didn't had a hard time).
We hope to see them in TAT2009 with their dream-car, the Defender 110 ambulance!

We are ready

A word of caution

Beware of branches & such this year - it's going to be pretty tough. For those of you that are open to the outside (no roof, no doors, no windows, etc) think of getting a pair of googles (or a helmet with face protection) and a tough jacket. A chainsaw/axe +/- shovel might come in handy.

And of course, don't forget your swimming suits ;)

See you in Deva

History and Maps


What you are seeing in this image is a map made in 1915 by the Austo Hungarian Empire (rulers of this area back then).
We added with yellow the GPS tracks we made during the scouting. The distance between villages is 2-3 km.
The details are amazing, this are very old and narrow roads on top of the hills. We are using them for the Extreme tracks on Thursday and Friday. On many of them nobody passed for more than 50 years! And they are made who knows when, hundred of years ago.
On Monday the extreme will even go on a track made 2000 years ago during the occupation by the Roman Empire! And after a few hundred meters they will enter a tunnel 840m long, made in 1902 for an industrial railway and deserted now!

Team 15, 53 and 17






Registrations

We sent to all of you the registration files.
If there are any changes, please send us back the file with the modifications.
This way we will spare a lot of time during the registration process in Deva.
We are opening our desk Saturday 28th of june at 12.00,
in the lobby of Hotel Sarmis.
After we will fill the hotel, which is not big enough for all the teams, we will accommodate the teams who will arrive later to Hotel Deva, who is 400 meters away, also in the center.
The cars will be parked on the main street on a section that will be closed and guarded, like last year.
The trailers will be parked in a separated place.



10 June 2008

why GPS?

for a few reasons:

First reason- in some positions of the Roadbooks you will have azimuths. That means that we give you an angle relative to the north (azimuth) and a distance on that direction so you can find the next position.
The distance is aerial (line of sight) calculated between the start point (the place you are) and the end point (the place you're looking for). This was done with the GPS and is very precise.
You will have to know how to operate your GPS in order to create a new waypoint based on the distance + angle we give you and then to go to that point. The route between the 2 points is not always direct so most of the time the distance on the ground (the one from the Trip meter) is longer.
If you use a compass you don't have enough precision on the angle reading and you cannot estimate the correct distance (line of sight).

Second reason- it's for your safety. In case you are lost or the car is broken, the only way to describe your position is by the GPS position.

09 June 2008

Tracks length

The Open Class:
Sunday 56 km
Monday 100 km
Tuesday 97 km
Thursday 114 km
Friday 55 km
Total approx. 422 km plus some special stages on Wednesday.

The Extreme Class:
Sunday 55 km
Monday 120 km (+ maybe another 40 depending on the weather and how fast you are..)
Tuesday 90 km
Thursday 110 km (+ more)
Friday 80km

Fuel, trailers & camps

The fuel price is the same as in the rest of Europe. There are fuel station near the camp sites (max.20km away).
If you are coming with street cars or trucks or trailers you can leave them in a special guarded place in Deva.
The main camp is accessible with any type of car. But the space we have for camping (at least for the moment, because we're looking for solutions) is not that big, so we would like to ask you to leave the unnecessary cars in Deva.

06 June 2008

The rules

We are back with the fresh TAT 2008 rules that you can find here
If you have any questions regarding these rules, please comment here, on the blog. That way you'll be able, once in Deva, to concentrate more on the competition itself rather than on the bureaucratic stuff ;)
Enjoy!

Maybe you know the teaser we did 2 years ago: it's on the right side of this page in the video section. It's from the first hours of TAT2005 and he's my team mate... and that's the year we won!

So in case it's happening to you, don't be afraid, it could be lucky.
....because you will pass the same spot on Sunday :-)))))

TAT winners

Who wants to win the TAT again?

Bernhard Hofstater, Niki Schonborn from Austria (Team 18) : winners of TAT2007 and second place in 2005 and 2004

Until now nobody suceeded to win the TAT 2 times.
And I admit I secretly hope it will be me :-)

Congratulations!

Harald and Gerald returned from Croatia Trophy with the second place.
So whatch out for team 16!
And let's not forget we have also the third place from 2007 among us.

06 May 2008

The Camps

This year there will be 3 camps named Central Camp, North Camp and South Camp.
The Central Camp will have all the facilities (showers and hot meals) and it's the place where the organization and the assistance teams will stay for the whole period.
The competitors will stay there on the nights of Sunday, Tuesday and Wednesday.
Monday and Thursday will be spent on the North and the South Camp. Those 2 remote camps are only for the competitors. They are located in more wild and remote places and the conditions will be more "spartan". We will provide the food and the fire places but you will take care of the cooking. There will be no showers but you can wash in the rivers nearby. Eco toilet in the forest.
One thing that is important to know is that Monday the Extreme will go South and the Open will go North. They will meet again Tuesday in the Main Camp. And Wednesday the Extreme will go to the North Camp and the Open to the South.
That means that the Open and Extreme competitors will be together only in the Central Camp.

23 April 2008

Until now...
26 Land Rovers (21 Defenders , 4 Range Rovers, 1 Discovery, 1 Minerva)
