    2018 Trans America my guess 40% gravel 60% normal asphalt total driving distance about 6000 miles , 2019 Peking to Paris 50%/50% total distance 9000 miles. you could view it on YouTube, Peking to Paris 2016 it will give you good idea about road condition.

    Thank you, I will remove address
  7. I am new to the Trans America Rally. I am preparing a 240Z for this years Trans America and hopefully we will get into 2019 P2P. Could you please share with me ,if you know, source for spring shocks, skid pads, and tire info. Basically anything that may be useful for a novice rally participant that doesn't want to waste money on unnecessary improvements.

    Yes, I am Jaguar XKE (E-type) aficionado and have several. You are absolutely right taking $250,000 car to the rally may not be very good idea. I do know Jag extremely well, and restore myself 9 of them, however Jag more at home on a smooth track and not very suitable for rally driving with 50% of of road pavement gravel. Because I am new to Z car and time is short I do need help sourcing rally parts. Any help or advice will be greatly appreciated.

    Mild cam, Springs about 200 lb but long enough to raise car 3-6 in", shocks, comfortable seats for 42 days of driving, roll cage, skid pads, fuel cell, front guard, tires, rally computer, etc

    If any of you can help advise me on where to order parts for a Datsun 240Z (because I'm new to this car), then I will drive that. However, if not, then I will probably drive my Jaguar E-Type Roadster 1965 (right).

    It is so expensive because it's 3 weeks; 2 people need to stay in hotels, there's a support crew, there's a marshall, a medic, etc.

    Start prep 1972 240Z for Trans America 2018 and P2P (Beijing to Paris for 2019) I have been doing reading but cant find any answers about lifting suspension for about 3-6" not for look but for aggressive driving, or find skid plates setup/drawing. Need help.

    Yes I am doing it
