4WD to the MAX! Season 2

#1

Post by Flipside »

As the name implies, this is another Season of the show, using a similar concept.

This time the vehicle sponsor is Suzuki, with their newish Gen 4 Jimny.

A number of teams were once again assembled, and put through the grinder at DeWildt 4x4, just outside of Pretoria.
Near the prowling grounds of jakeslouw.

Again the Season 2 shows airs on DSTV's Ignition Channel - channel189 starting on 5 November.

A couple of social media posts have been made and the following teaser has been published to draw attention to the show.

Herman Steyn and I were invited to be participants as well, and I will try to answer questions as the series becomes available.
Remember that this was my first opportunity to drive the new Jimny in anger. It is quite a different beast to my little Gen3 that I have been accustomed to. So we went for the fun factor involved.

Flip, drive it like it's your Gen 3, with momentum and picking the right lines, then on the odd occasion where you lose traction, the traction control works a treat. If you feel you are about to lose traction give it a bit of gas to avoid it stalling.

With open eyes it is much simpler, I thought Herman’s ticker will give out from the amount of times he ran up and down

This is the correct YouTube link:

Flip 'n Awesome came 1st in the blindfolded obstacle course drive.
But their general knowledge sucks.

One team got voted out...

Then they had an elimination knock-out round and another team had to leave...
