October 5(Local date), today was the destabilizing day. Jun lost GPS way points sometimes and he had to fight the hard battle in the difficult course to navigate. Jun spent the time without seeing other competitors within 30 km radius and he continued the race with fixing the gap of GPS way points.
After that Jun’s navigator Alan found GPS way points and the only thing they had to do was going straight to the goal. Unfortunately, they had flat tires 3 times and encountered the crash of motorcycle in front of him like yesterday. Jun helped the motorcycle rider and finally crossed the finish line later. Jun didn’t check the official result yet, but he felt today’s race was so interesting.
Jun said “Tomorrow is the last day of the rally, and I will try harder till the end to grab the good feeling to Dakar Rally”
