LOL, yeap, the driver will kill the JK with a big engine... so if she is underpower, the chances of braking stuff is lower...

English is not our main language, so we are doing our best...

the home page navigation, super easy, almost all words are the same...
video is the same for both, gallery or galleria...similar...so not big deal..
surfing the web should not be an issue...

anyways, we have the following wording to introduce the JK

G’Day!!! people from our expedition team has been doing expeditions and off road racing for over a decade now, and we reached levels that we never dreamed of. In fact, we are dreaming our vision and let me tell you, fantasies are an expensive deal. As soon as you start to work on them, on your dreams, you are screwed. Without notice, we were deeply involved in a project that goes far beyond your imagination. We were working long days to reach the impossible, the building up of the car, the human team that represents us, the Venezuelans, in that remarkable race.

From previous experiences from our friends in the off road world, we know in advance that Australians customs will take more than few days, so we are following their advise and we shipped the car (crystal clear, no fuel) with enough time to get the release on time for the event. For racing purposes, we must follow all administrative steps and timing that is required. The race will not wait for us; we must be there on time.

We know about the “friendly” battle between top brand names in the off road world, one of the Venezuelan teams goes with a brand new FZJ79 from Toyota. The other one (us) goes with a brand new 4-door JK from Jeep. Dang Venezuelans, let me tell you...
But, we have a secret weapon, a cute Venezuelan girl as a driver for our team, yeap, a Venezuelan girl; you know what I’m talking about. Over the years, she has demonstrated to be a magnet for pictures, besides her excellent skills as an off-road driver. She was there, fighting shoulder to shoulder to earn respect from our community, so she did it again.

It’s easy to anticipate a great coverage for our team, so we are in contact with the media and related companies. We’ll see…
