A Live Update from the Rebelle Rally with Team Velocity!
About this episode
Team Velocity shares a live update from the Rebelle Rally, highlighting their progress and experiences in this all-female, no-technology navigation competition. They discuss their transition from the Baby Bronco to the Ranger Raptor, praising its comfort, speed, and off-road capabilities. The team reflects on their growth over four years, improved strategy, and time management skills, especially in challenging terrain like the White Mountains and Ridgecrest. They also touch on the rally's increasing popularity and the unique challenges of navigating by heading alone. The conversation offers insight into the rally's demanding nature and the team's camaraderie and determination.
Karisa Haydon and Trista Smith from Team Velocity, factory backed by Ford Racing, join us on the show for a live update from the Rebelle Rally! They'll be joining us again when the rally finishes, but we were lucky enough to have a quick call with them during the heat of the competition!
