who's coming

We have reached our 60 cars target and started the payment period for the TAT 2008.

The open class has 22 cars and the extreme 38.

The competitors are coming from Belgium, Holland, Italy, Austria, France, Germany, Greece, Spain, Portugal, Slovakia (for the first time, with 6 cars) and Romania.

We left the registrations open for a while so you can still register if you didn't do it already.

Those of the first 60 who will decide not to come will be replaced by the new ones.

The level of preparation of the teams and machines is higher than ever.

And we are trying harder to overcome their expectations.

It looks like the TAT2008 will be the 4x4 Champions League!
