Quality & safety over quantity

The days when high participant numbers were very important, are gone forever. For 2024, the focus is on 100% customer satisfaction and safety. This means we're reducing the number of allowed racers in some categories. We will limit the number of race vehicles to 200 (versus the 300 starting vehicles in 2023). However, the organisation will not downsize. Direct consequences of this are:

• An earlier daily start (from 7AM) for everybody
• More time for the service teams in the late afternoon & evening
• Faster sweeper service in case of technical problems on track
• More quality time with friends & fellow racers at the bar

Safety is also a huge focus for the next edition. More information will be available in the next few months, but here are a few previews:

• Compulsory cardio test (max 1 year old) during exercise  for ALL participants in competition
• Mandatory airbag vest for motorbike and quad riders
• Limitation of maximum speed on SSVs to 135 km/h
• Mandatory medical check at fuel point (km 200) for bikers
• No more "Raid" participants on the race track
