The Dacia Duster of Pikes Peak in movement


During the last few weeks we have spoken above some cars to participate this year in the climb Pikes Peak. Among them we did focus on the "stranger" Dacia Duster of Jean Phylippe Dayraut who argued for a model that we have seen in so many-colored as the Trophee Andros competitions, with Alain Prost behind the wheel, or even as a participant of national Raids.
But now comes to see him completely in motion in order to make us a little bit to the idea of the performance of the car in their next target of lowering the record marked already makes a few edits by "Monster" Tajima. By now seems that the v6 biturbo inherited the Nissan GT-R, and developed by Renault Sport, it seems that you push with force.

The "pinta" good end of the Dacia Duster of Pikes Peak

 It has enough changed my opinion about this car for a week to another. And it is that well painted, with the sponsors already placed on the decoration and without all this American tape, Dacia Duster from French Dayraut WINS enough. But we must also point out that in the pictures the car is still just as rough and robust as on previous occasions.
Now that the work is finished, and to four weeks to hold the edition of the Pikes Peak this year, plays that the pilot is preparing and putting the car to your liking. For Jean Philipe Dayraut the Duster is not an unknown as this season has been participating at the controls of one of its variants on the ice of the Andros trophy.
It remains to be seen if in its first year the French can be downloaded from the mythical barrier of ten minutes. Something that is not easy for a rookie team, as they were able to demonstrate the guys at Ford during the 2009 Edition. Despite having a pilot of the stature of Marcus Gronholm with a coach as a Olsbergs trying to download the record was quite far from what was expected.
