Martigues
After the first test gallop with my
new truck-2 on the tracks of the
Spanish Pyrenees, some improvements
proved to be useful as well on the
cell by Psi-Azalaï as on the unit
Mercedes G. On September 24th I
deposited my vehicle at Psi-Azalaï in
Martigues which benefitted from it to
again present it to DREAL in the past
DRIRE in order to make it approve in
3,5 tons. During this time I visited
Marseilles on September 25 & 26th with
a gleaming autumnal sun. Then on
October 6th I would deposit it at ORC
close to Stuttgart, Germany for the
modifications of Mercedes G and,
finally on October 13th at Nouvel' Air
in Dieppe, France for the installation
of occlusions on bays. Thus to avoid
truck-2 will be ready to face the
Moroccan tracks for three months
starting from October 27th, to look at
the
presentation.
