Take a Ride in a Rally Car
Item Number: 428
Time Left: CLOSED
Description
You will have the opportunity to be the co-driver for one round of a race. You will also get a t-shirt in the size of your choice as well as a vinyl window sticker and autographed picture. The race date will be determined based on availability of the winner and 4 Brothers Racing. If you don't want to race, 4 Brothers Racing is willing to substitute the race for a family event/birthday party for one hour (within a 50 mile radius).
For those of you who have no idea what a co-driver in a rally race does (that would include us, your auction administrators!), here's a description:
The key to a rally driver’s success is their co-driver. Rally drivers cannot practice the course and must rely on their navigator (or co-driver) to survive. The co-driver uses a computerized odometer along with a supplied route book to communicate to the driver what lies ahead on the road. The route book describes in detail the road ahead and includes warnings for hazards such as cliffs, trees, and junctions. Rally drivers determine what speed and angle to enter each turn or crest in the road by listening to their co-driver’s constant instructions.
Sounds pretty serious. Seriously cool.
Special Instructions
- The co-driver (who will sit in the passenger seat!) should be at least 18 years old.
