" Also, former GT Academy mentor and racing driver, Tim Coronel will take on the race in a Toyota Hilux with twin brother and touring car driver, Tom."
That is not a Toyota Hilux ... it is a 'Jefferies Racing Chevy Buggy'
From the site "The car has a weight of approximately 1,850 kg and is powered by a 6.2 litre Chevrolet LS3 engine with an output restricted at 400 hp."

I was watching NBCSN this past weekend or so and noted there was coverage of Dakar. Didn't think Dakar 2018 started this early. Dakar is always one of the toughest races in the world. Seems like business as usual with these brave drivers and riders taking on this wicked challenge. I first followed Dakar in 2002. A brutal rally to say the least.
