The World’s Greatest Rally  22 November – 1 December 2009

 

With just 6 months to go till the worlds greatest rally commences, the Datrats Safari project for Joey Ghose and BCBS motorsports is entering the final preparation phase.

Joey Ghose is no newcomer to rallying or the East African Safari. Competing in Kenya as a driver in a Datsun A10 for many years, Joey showed his versatility by navigating for Sammy Aslam in the 1994 Trust Bank safari. They came a highly creditable 8th outright in a Golf GTI. Having an appreciation of both driving and navigation should be a significant help to the teams performance for the 2009 Classic event.

A secret weapon has recently been brought to the team with the services of the highly respected navigator Surinder Sudle being obtained.

Our name resulted from our original concept providing DATsun Recycling And Tuning Services.

We started the DATRATS business in 1997. Initially we sourced recycled parts for a range of vehicles and provided these for sale on the web. Where some parts were no longer available or specialised needs arose we started to consult with a range of specialised fabricators to provide the parts needed and market them to the public.

We also build performance engines and contract performance preparation of gearboxes and differentials.

Suspension design is catered for using only the best components for our Serious range of struts.

When the going gets really rough we use specialised MCA suspension.   

Serious® 

The parts developed and sold by Datrats are all designed for a range of Datsun/Nissan vehicles mainly manufactured prior to 1988. These parts are designed primarily for serious competitors in serious competition. We needed a name that identified that fact, so we registered the brand name Serious® in 2003.
