Budapest - Bamako !

[meszima]

Hi,

I'm a new member here, yesterday I found your forum. My name is Martin, and i'm a bit far away from you all, I live in Budapest, Hungary. Have you ever heard the Budapest - Bamako race event?
So, me, and 3 of friends have just bought a '92 2,8 gt td patrol for this event, and we're about to build an off-road race car. I've already got experience of building race cars, but for road, not for off-road, there for I looked for a forum like yours to get information and help.

Thank's
Martin
