SAFARI TESTING GROUND !!

yilgarn — Sun, 22 May 2011 07:14:53 +0000

Already a top level field of riders has entered the event including 3 time Australasian Safari champion Ben Grabham, 2 time Condo 750 rally winner Rod Faggotter and several more Safari podium placers such as Damien Grabham, David Schwarz and Mat Fish. All the main contenders from the KTM, Yamaha and Husaberg Safari teams will be taking on the event.

With the news that Dakar legend Cryil Despres is heading down under for the 2011 Australasian Safari, the Yilgarn Rallye gives the top Aussie Safari teams the chance to test new equipment and hone their rallye racing skills before the big event come late September.

Held over the 24th—26th June 2011 weekend, the event is based at Southern Cross on the edge of the Goldfields of Western Australia and takes in around 900 km of station tracks, mining exploration tracks and gravel roads around Southern Cross – exactly the same type of tracks and terrain that the Safari will cover less than 3 months later.
