Have you heard of the extreme off road challenge being held in South Africa?
It said to be much more extreme than the Rubicon.

2.5km's and it takes two whole days to complete. All natural obstacles, rock crawling, water holes and so much more. Visit www.karooadventures.co.za to see if this could be true, use the link "events"
Seems the locals are too scared to attempt it, only 2 has finished in the first event ever held. Next event 6 to 7th of Nov 2004. :jeep:

Looks like fun. Seems like slightly diiferent terrain than our Rubicon.

Are you a competitor? If you are, or are a spectator, post some pictures in Gen4X4. Thanks for the link!

Edit: I just figured out you are an organizer. If you are trying to solicit competitors or just publicity try here:
