The 2008 Jordan Rally had 21 stages centred on the Dead Sea area (in 40 km radius[2]). The stages all fell within a 75 km area. All stages except one had sections below sea level.[3]
The service area was constructed from scratch, involving the Jordan's Army and Ministry of Housing Public Works. An area of 50 thousand square meters was to be dedicated to the purpose of this WRC event, one of the biggest sporting events Jordan has ever held.[2]
