Off-roading show applications

Post by UNIMOG-GUY »

Well here you guys go...

(I stole this from my Unimog board. I know nothing further. But I couldn't resist posting it here.)

We are looking for dynamic candidates for an upcoming off-roading show.
We'll be following several two-person teams in their off-road vehicles
(prefer Jeeps, Land Rovers, and Land Cruisers) as they take on a variety
of terrains, specifically mud, water, rocks, and sand. We're looking to
film for a month this summer. We would like the candidates to be have
their own vehicle and to be able to fix their own vehicles during this
expedition. They should also have a partner (friend, relative, etc.) who
can drive/ride during this expedition. Both drivers must know how to
winch, and please list any competitions in which either of you have
participated. If you are interested, please contact Kate Carroll, producer
at Original Productions, off board at kcarroll@origprod.com.
Please send pix of yourself, your partner and your vehicle, plus your age.

It kind of reminds me of the Alaska Off-road Warriors Race. http://www.history.com/shows/alaska-off-road-warriors

I watched several episodes and was thinking the entire time that a stock Mog (with a couple of accessories) would have won it no problem. And one that was properly prepped like BAMBAM or the one for sale here (http://unimogshop.com/ads/unimog-s40...turbo-extreme/) would have won by a large margin.
