4x4 Borneo Safari 2010

Welcome to one of the most gruelling expeditions on Borneo—the 4x4 Borneo Safari.

 

In this competition, teams will drive through mountains and valleys, rivers and streams for a total of 8 days. This challenge will push teams to their limits. They will have to depend on their tough off-road vehicles to navigate their way across the treacherous Borneo rainforest terrain.

 

This expedition is neither a race nor a rally. Teams will be awarded according to their skills in driving, obstacle clearing, and innovation in vehicle recovery. Teams will also be judged based on their spirit of teamwork.

 

In various stages of this expedition, teams will also be given tasks to complete—all under the inevitable environmental pressure. They will undergo deep river crossing, be tested on their map reading intelligence, and perform bridge building and mud side clearing to earn the coveted points. However, points will be deducted should safety rules be breached in the form of dangerous driving, speeding, as well as vehicle equipment abuse.

 

The 4x4 Borneo Safari expedition will denote the enduring power, stamina, and skills of off-road drivers. Throughout this challenge, man and machine will merge together in overcoming all odds.
