Categorization

In TransAnatolia there are two main categories for bikes, ATVs, SSVs, cars, buggies and trucks, one is rally and the other is raid. Both Rally and Raid competitors are given road books at the highest available standards.Rally competitors race against time.

Raid competitors’ challenge is with the navigation, not with time and they usually make less stages than rally competitors.

Rally competitors receive a time for each respective stage. Summarization of those stage times determines the fastest racer.

Raid competitors receive points for their proximity during the stage. Summarization of those points determines the winner.
