Where we race, there are no roads. Well, there are, but they're not paved. But who'd live in the middle of a barren wasteland where temperatures tickle the sizzle meter at 120 degrees?
Where we race there is only dirt. And sand. And rocks. And that's just the way we like it!
You see, while almost anybody can build a road-racing car (and don't think we could'nt build one heck of a race car), it takes something special to build a vehicle that can withstand thousands of miles of uninterrupted pounding in some of the harshest corners of the world mother nature can ante up.
Of course, when you start with one of the best-made offroaders around, it does'nt take much to build a champion. And thats just what RACECO did with it's AORRA class1 superstar Maxi-Frame, specially prepared by Outer Bounds Racing and driven by offroad pro Brian Robinson.
It all started in 1995 when we were all but laughed at by the competition. After all, there was no way a Western Australian Team-a all Western Australian Team nonetheless-was going to steal the thunder from the big boys from the Northern Territory, South Australia, N.S.W., Queensland, Victoria. No way ain't gonna happen.
Then it happened. In our very first foray into the roughneck world of offroad racing we walked away with 4th outright win in the gruelling Finke Desert Race
