I heard of this Challenge last year, when they tried it and one of our crew met these guys and also had a drive of their Buggy.

 

They recently released this 'doco' of the World Record Attempt. It's a little long winded, some of it is in German (but with subtitles), I gotta say, I enjoyed it and also hear their observations of our Country, in particular, our Outback with the Buggy Crew having come 'fresh off the boat'.

will have to watch the rest of it later, but am a bit worried; they're all so very pale  :ohno:

I love a sunburnt country,

A land of sweeping plains,

Of ragged mountain ranges,

of droughts and flooding rains.

I love her far horizons,

I love her jewel-sea,

Her beauty and her terror-

The wide brown land for me!
