We always expected this would B a huge Challenge. But simply many things have gone from bad to worse. Sorting multiple problems as usual !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

FIA Scrutineer BOB ELLIS is in Hospital & can not travel to Bolivia. We wish him well as he is a good Bloke 😊😊

CMR containers have been at port of ARIKA in Chile since 3^rd September with a green light. CMR has recently been told is a minor paper hold up that is being sorted with containers due to various reason.

But on Tuesday 23^rd CMR were advised that of our 4 containers only 3 were there & 1 critical one is missing. Also there is no date that when the other 3 can get to salt flats. On the night of the 23^rd reality was that CMR were heading home for many reasons

Latest update

Glimmer of hope. Roger Banowetz & Daniel Coen FIA are sorting a FIA scrutineer. 😊😊😊😊

FIA are allowing us to delay date of event for a few days 😊😊😊😊

The logistics of delaying the event with everyone’s travel etc is a nightmare. Not sure when the 3 containers will arrive. The 4^th Container has been located else where in Chile. But no arrival time. Sergio Garcia from Bolivia has offered to help as much as possible with missing things needed.

Reality

If Daniel CMR Facilitator & Sergio Garcia can complete all that has been discussed on time. Then the event may continue. Any more delays & Chasing 800 KPH is Dead in the Water.

Hopefully the next 48 hours brings progress.
