Moi aussi! Si c'est plus que sa, un rally de navigation, oublie moi aussi, je n'ai pas de voiture, ni Piston_24 pour le faire...

tu fait pas de funride avec ton char ?

et pour le rally ''rapide''
ces impossible de fermer un chemin forestier un week end a partir de samedi jusqu'a la fin novembre....
pour la ''chasse au tresort''
vous aller passer dans des chemin ou le panorama est tres beau !

et ou il a pas vraiment de trafic

et vous devez vous servir de votre tetes pour repondre au question !

Navigational Rallying

Simply put, the objective is precision teamwork. The navigator has been handed a route book (instructions) seconds before leaving the start. Depending upon the particular class and series they're competing in, these instructions can range from quite straight-forward to fiendishly difficult. The navigator must interpret (or even decipher) them, and pass the information to the driver in a timely manner.

Not only will the route book provide information regarding turns to be taken - or ignored - they will include average speeds to be maintained, pauses, and other instructions to be followed.

At various unknown sites along the route the team will come across a checkpoint. They stop, are given a sticker showing their time in, and time out, and so the rally continues. Scoring is done at the end of the event, and the team that has most successfully stayed on route, at the specified speeds, will have accumulated the smallest number of time penalties at each checkpoint, and will be declared the winners.

While it might seem that the navigator has the most to do, driving in a navigational rally is quite challenging. Rallies are held mainly on gravel roads, and so if the route book calls for an average speed of 72kp/h in a particular section, you know that you must slow down for every corner to stay out of the ditch. Then you must go faster than 72 for a little bit, to get back up to your correct average speed. Given that most speedometers are only marked in 5kp/h increments, juggling these requirements along with remembering your next instruction, watching out for other road-users, and relaying upcoming intersections to your navigator is quite a challenge to do well.

Car preparation is not required in navigational events, although many teams add auxiliary lights for night-time competition. You can compete in any good condition car or light truck. As you progress from Beginner class events through Novice, Clubman, Intermediate to Expert, you will probably aquire a programmable calculator to make your timing easier; or even a rally computer, which is a highly
