The Dakar Rally, set to take place between January 5-20, was abruptly cancelled due to direct threats made against the event by "terrorist organizations."

While stages of the Dakar have been cancelled in the past due to various issues, this was the first time that the 30-year-old rally, one of the biggest competitions in automobile racing, has been called off. About 550 competitors were scheduled to start the 16-day, 5,760-mile trek through emote and hostile dunes and scrub from Europe to Senegal in West Africa.

How this cancellation will affect the companies, organizations and countries involved in the race is still unknown but the potential loss can be tremendous.
 
I had to put a terrorist in the wall this morning on the drive in. Fuggin towely driving 50 in the far left lane. He got cut off hard. If my horn worked I woulda used it, but it gave up back in the Great Southwest Freeway Pile Up of '05 molaugh
 
Robby Gordon said it cost him $4.5 million due to the cancellation. He said they could have at least run part of it, but it was insane to cancel the whole race.
 
Yeah that sucks, I always loved watching it. Those guys on the Motorcycles are friggin crazy.
