First Hand Knowledge & Expertise

From the Pearl of the Indian Ocean / Road to RFC Part I

You need these to Face the Odds in Rainforest Challenge & to complete the event.

Kudos to RFC Technical Director Sean Hameed from Sri Lanka for initiating the “Road to RFC” program for off-roaders & nexgen 4x4 aspiring to experience RFC Grand Final in Malaysia.

An experienced “veteran” RFC hand since 2008 with numerous “combat experiences" as both a racer in the early days right up to be an official in the present day, he “knows the ropes” perfectly on how to technically prepare your machines & “to get up & get going” + survive during the 10 days, including the dreaded The Twilight Zone.

“The theme was to emulate the RFC TZ experience and climb & maneuver your way through hilly country. It’s maybe around 5% of the real thing at 7 Highland of RFC but brutal hard lessons here better equip you in mind, body & machines first before going to Malaysia for 29RFC 2026 or 30RFC 2027!
