General Discussions

In the coming years RCR is planning a 10 day Ultimate Expedition to some of the most wild and breathtaking places we've ever been.

This Rally will be an invite only cannonball type rally, capping team registration to allow long times between departure, and to promote a small footprint. This Rally will cover substantial ground and chase trucks are not permitted.

2020 to 2024 1st place teams have qualified for RCRW as well as Team 4. The full list will be updated below.

We aim for this to be our 10th year, 2026. This is obviously subject to change as this will be a HUGE undertaking, requiring numerous trips West for our mapping.. one of which I've already done.

Being 10 days, this will certainly be an expedition type rally without a central camp, offering some of the best camping views you'll ever experience.

RCR also understands this trip will be a once in a lifetime trip for some teams and we are considering altering the TSD type type rally format we currently are, to a format allowing teams to go their own pace, stopping for photos or even camping alone. We are considering having pre-determined bivouac locations teams must arrive at, but

Camping between the bivouac is up to teams.

Teams should expect desert conditions some nights as well as snow and 60mph winds. All members should be comfortable driving their vehicles over 12,000 feet.

This will be an amazing and difficult trek, not so much because of terrain but because of the conditions, distance and planning that will be needed to be competitive.
