The 31 teams competing in the 2008 Transsyberia Rallye have just 2 more sleeps before they strap themselves in to their steeds to tackle the 4347 miles leading from Moscow to Ulaanbaatar in Mongolia.
It would be hard to believe that any team could be better prepared than those who are campaigning the specially prepared Porsche Cayenne. In the video after the break, the Porsche team does a bit of final testing of their steeds and competitors like Rod & Ryan Millen and Canadian Kees Nierop discuss what it takes to compete in an event like this.
As the Transsyberia Rallye progresses, The Garage will be providing readers with daily text updates and regular video coverage. of course we’ll do out best to keep tabs on Nierop and his co-driver Laurance Yap.
