Regularity stage

A generated regularity test on Moroccan-style terrain, scored with the Dakar Classic 2027 V1 rules. It has secret PCIs, an average that changes every few boxes, a village speed zone, passage controls, parallel tracks, and a tripmaster that does not quite agree with the roadbook. Lowest penalty wins.

Co-driver notes

How regularity works, the controls, and a stage routine to follow.

Q · W · ETell the driver which track to take at the next junction: the left-hand one, the middle one (or the straighter of two), or the right-hand one. If you have not called, he stops and asks.
↑ ↓Set the speed you want the driver to hold (Shift for ±5). Terrain, bends and the driver's own wander do the rest.
S · [ ]Sync the tripmaster to a roadbook box as you pass its landmark, or nudge it ±10 m.
C · U · VCaution call before a danger, U-turn, and switch the trip to count down when backtracking.
