The Road to Dakar 2020  Just Got a Little Closer

Last weekend Dynamic Racing went overseas to race in the 2018 Baja Aragon in Spain. Over 600 miles of wild terrain makes it one of the toughest, and prestigious, off-road raid events in Europe. During the three-day racing event Christine GZ and Luy Galan raced in a CAM AM Maverick X3 provided by South Racing Can-Am.

This event was a milestone for Dynamic and Christine GZ as it was the starting point for their road to Dakar in 2020. The Baja Aragon was seen as an opportunity to measure skill and teamwork capabilities to find a gauge on they will stand against the most demanding off-road race in the world – Dakar.

Dynamic Racing Places 10th in SS4 at Baja Aragon

Christine GZ and Luy Galan flexed their talent at this event by finishing 10th in CERTT (Campeonato de Espana de Rallies Todo Terra) which is the time they set throughout the race. This is a victorious triumph for team Dynamic Racing to finish in the top 10 on their first attempt at Baja Spain.

During the race Christine and Luy experienced 2 tire punctures and an unexpected rain storm during the final day of racing added a layer of mud over an already challenging course. Mechanical difficulties were a factor as the UTV took several beatings charging through the course. The South Racing crew kept them in the game and Christine repaid their efforts with speed.

This 10th place victory in SS4 timing, and 18th overall finish, was a team effort. The perfect combination of talent and trust between driver and co-driver, and a pit-crew in sync with what needed to be done to stay in the race. These results are exactly what Dynamic Racing needs to further spur their confidence as they continue on the road to Dakar.

Dynamic Racing Next Race in the Nevada Desert

Finished 10th and 18th in one of the toughest off-road events of the year proves once again that Christine GZ is the real deal. A racer destined for the podium stage in the years to follow. A sign pointing in the right direction on her path in life as an international off-roader and gifted driver.

Next race for Dynamic Racing will be back in the United States in mid-August as they race across the Nevada desert with the help of their sponsors: Maglock USA, J.Juan Brakes, Factory UTV, Weddle Racing Gears and KC Hilites.
