HISTORIC RALLY TRAINING COURSE.
Regularity Rally Training Course
Historic regularity rally, such as the Dakar Historic, is a competition that showcases classic and historic vehicles, often vintage cars, in events held on open roads. Unlike traditional rallies, where speed is the priority, regularity rally focuses on precise navigation and keeping to the allotted times. Competitors must follow a predefined route while maintaining set average speeds and precise timing. Regularity navigation demands great precision in reading maps and roadbooks, and in calculating times. It's a challenge for the crew — one we'll work to make simple and enjoyable, thanks to the right tools and techniques.
THEORY TRAINING:
The theory session takes place before your departure — either in person, by video call, or on the first day of your course — so that you arrive as well prepared as possible and get the most out of the practical training. This module lasts between 2 and 5 hours, depending on your needs and personal requests. Every course is tailored, and many topics can be covered according to your needs and your rally experience: administrative checks, time checkpoints, navigation basics, roadbook reading, use of navigation instruments, in-car psychology, and much more. Of course, it's also a moment of exchange, where I answer any questions you may have about the co-driver's role.
FORMATION PRATIQUE:
La durée varie de 1 à 4 jours selon la formule choisie. À bord d'un véhicule tout-terrain adapté aux pistes et équipé pour la navigation avec un roadbook électronique, je vous propose de nombreuses spéciales de rallye que nous effectuerons ensemble afin de travailler la navigation. Des spéciales rapides, des dunes, du hors-piste : la variété de parcours dédiés permet de cibler différents aspects en fonction de vos besoins personnels. Chaque spéciale sera suivie d'un débriefing qui nous permettra d'aborder différents points pour la spéciale suivante. Bien évidemment, les différentes spéciales seront ponctuées d'exercices variés qui vous permettront de progresser rapidement et d'appréhender toutes les situations auxquelles vous pourriez être confronté lors d'un rallye.
