New pre-tour date: 18/09 till 01/10

03 Aug 2016

At this point, really should be shown pictures and reports from our pre-tour. Unfortunately I have to disappoint you. For the first time we had planned the tour in the summer. However, this led to the following problems: First, the CTN Ferry was overbooked at the scheduled travel date. This would have meant to go to Genoa without any guarantee of a place on the “Carthage”. Secondly, we did not get an approval for the routes in the southern restricted area. No, not because of security problems, but because of the high temperatures in August!

Conclusion: New date in September, then with the permission for El Borma and of course with online tracking at EXPLONA.

Good news !

The rally El Chott 2016 will take place.

On July 29, we start towards Genoa. The ferry is booked. The pre-tour is carried out as planned. Even if we want to avoid the most hottest desert regions, planned is essentially a review of all kilometers on roads and pistes, we are excited about which temperatures we have to expect in early August.

My boundless optimism gives me hope that the currently existing commitments become actually registrations and participations. Then we would get really even a respectable starting field.

So now there is finally planning-security for already registered and for potential participants as well as for ORGA and service teams.

I hope to see you on our rally meeting at the 8th of October as every year in the Hotel “Eisenacher Haus”.

El Chott 2016 – time is running !

23 Jun 2016

The security situation in Tunisia has stabilized. Police and army make greatest efforts with international support, to protect population and tourists from possible attacks.

We, organizer and all ORGA teams of El Chott, are determined to organize in 2016 again a full-fledged rally in the most beautiful landscapes of Tunisia. Our tourism groups are already well booked, but for the motorsport competition, a few more registrations in the competition classes are needed. At July 15th the registration period for “normal entry fee” ends. After this date the decision will be done whether we start at July 30th the pre-tour.

Has the rally El Chott in Tunisia even after 35 years a future ? You will decide !

A real adventure for newcomers and demanding motorsport for advanced.

Share our passion ! We hope to see you !

35 years rally El Chott – the dream is still living

02 Jun 2016

The dream of a few became an idea for an adventure rally in the Sahara. It took place for the first time in 1981.

Over the years much changed:

Teams, vehicles and service became more professional.
The demands on the organization and logistics increased constantly.
The adventurous spirit of the early years changed into ambition for rally competition at a high level.

Nevertheless, we live the dream continues – Adventure & Motorsport in the vastness of the Sahara.

El Chott 2016 – take part in our adventure – Tunisia, we come !
