IT'S DeROOY DAKAR RACING SEASON AGAIN

Yes, it's that time of the year we all look forward to. No, I don't mean Christmas or New Years....I MEAN DAKAR TIME.
The 2008 Dakar Rally promises to be a heated affair bewteen the DAF/GINAF teams and the Russian KAMAZ delegation.
This year, one of our favorite players, Jan de Rooy and his team had to bite the bullet(so to speak) when DAF announced that they would no longer build or develop race engines for DAKAR. Jan had to search elsewhere for horsepower and he choose IVECO Motors for his DAF/GINAF trucks. The team also lost the major sponsor from last year so De Rooy Transport will be footing the bill for DAKAR this year and the trucks have been re-painted "De Rooy Orange". Jan himself will be driving truck #610 this year with son Gerard driving truck # 606.We all wish him the best of luck with DAKAR 2008.
