I know it is a bit off-topic, I'm sorry for that, but I just want you to show one tipical stage in Slovenia (it is from Rally Saturnus, held few day ago):

eWRC.cz - Video Onboard Novak-Ocvirk FabiaR2 Rally Saturnus 2013

25 km long, even once the driver doesn't select the 5th gear, at least five times you drive on gravel sections, all the time up&down, al lot of mud and gravel on tarmac...goath paths. Compared to Czech stages you have ''heaven roads''......You can imagine how nice is to drive with slicks on gravel, all the time you are afraid to damage the tyre or rim....By the way, the driver is 19 years old, this was his third rally and on this stage he managed 4th fastest time....

I know stages of Saturnus, I always enjoyed the onboards of our crews going there in previous year. Your stages are great! I can also assure You that our crews which started in Saturnus mostly loved the stages, also the gravel sections. Nobody ever said those were rough, in fact the opposite.

This year saturnus had 2 new stages guys, and SS moravče (new one) was brutal, it was in the video ucci talked about :)

Aha, thanks.

Here another great onboard of Jakeš, this time from one of our hardest stages called Kameňák, the route from 3:40 to finish is a classic part of Barum rally stage Troják. This time just perfect driving :) By the way Tomaštík crashed in difficult section somewhere at time 6:50-7:10.

Thanks for the onboard Mirek!

This time his driving looks almost clean on every section.

Also I manage to identify Tomaštík crash section and looking at the speed that Jakeš achieved during the turn I'm a bit confused about what cause those heavy damages in his S12B.

I mean that I have seen so many crashes happened during high speed sections with less damages for the car in general.

It's posible that apart from the trees, the car stunk with some big rocks or something.

Best regards.

yes it is a very beautiful place :)
shame that this place is no run in special stages

reg Jörg

It was run as a TV stage in early 1990' but now the area is private as far as I know.
