Well…another year, another post on this topic. I thought I might have exited this space a bit due to recent events but we can get to that some time in the future. For now it appears I’ll still be tied to the Nissan offroad racing community in one fashion or another. So off we go.
2022 appears to be a bit better than 2021 with a number of decent entries in the primary class of “cars” but also sees a huge influx of Dakar entries in the “Classic” class as well…so at least we have a bunch of teams to follow and pictures to see even if the results won’t be at the top of the standings.
So off we go…First up are those Nissans in the “car” class and running against the big boys of the sport. Here we have:
#291 Nissan Patrol of Ibrahim Almuhna
#280 Nissan Proto of Jose Manuel Salinero
#272 Nissan Patrol of Silvio Totani
#267 Nissan Navara of Jurgen Schroeder (who was replaced by his son Daniel Schroeder due to Covid)
#265 Nissan Navara of Markus Walcher
Nissans running in the "Classic” class are as follows:
#719 Nissan Terrano of Maurizio Traglio
#751 Nissan Terrano of Francisco Javier Benavente
#753 Nissan Patrol of Michel Blanc
#759 Nissan Terrano of Luciano Carcheri
#761 Nissan Patrol of Gian Paolo Tobia Cavagna
#767 Nissan Terrano of Giacomo Clerici
#770 Nissan Patrol of Guido Dallarosa
#795 Nissan Patrol of Eje Elgh
