Default Unimog on Rhino Charge

The Rhino Charge is an annual off-road event in Kenya that raises money for conservation in the Aberdares National Park.
There are a set number of points given at random points on the landscape and the car to travel between the most number of points in sequence in the least amount of time wins. Pretty simple. Not the biggest budgets on the cars. And they require alot more all-round performance than alot of off-road vehicles I see here. There's a fair amount of speed, rock crawling, mud, hill climbing and others involved. So they have to be well rounded.

YouTube - Rhino Charge 2007

Here's a Unimog which competed in this year's event, and a few others thrown in as well...

Enjoy.

I just realized. The unimog's actually pretty useless here. Sorry bout that.

Kenya is awesome.
Look up more videos for Rhino Charge on YouTube. most of them are amateur videos for individual teams, with inside jokes and whatnot, but there is some good footage in there.

And yes, Unimogs rock.
