2012 Tuff Truck Preparation Video

This Tuesdays working be was a little different…

With all the hype of Tuff Truck happening on the interwebs, Rowan saw an opportunity to attempt to go viral with a (possibly “funny”) video about out prep work, and get some exposure for our sponsors. Having seen the Monster Energy prep spoof for this years King of the Hammers he thought Cape Crew could do something similar, as we had also withdrawn from competing this year.

Knowing that we had a spare flat screen telly not in use at the Race Central offices, Rowan packed his PS2 (not used in 2 years) and some offroad games. We talked through the idea and set to work.

With just 4 guys and a few hours we had some pretty dodge footage captured all with a dodge Lumix point-and-shoot camera and using an iPhone torch app for lighting this was as budget as you can get. The following night after work, Rowan jumped on the Mac and using iMovie came up with this:

Zebras are Social Animals

Team Wild Bitch needs your help: we are a small team at the very infancy of building from a concept into a real challenger. Being small, young and modern we are planning to manage our team in a new social way. Using our social networks we plan to pull together mates (and mates of mates) to lend a hand the best way they know how. They may know how to bend some pipe, fit some tyres, tune a motor, donate an old winch, talk a deal with a suspension dealer… what’s your forte?

We’ve started the list off with some obvious traits out mates can offer. Hopefully we can use this “standout vehicle” and our online following as a platform to help you achieve some of your goals, or maybe you just want to come and have a home brew in the shed to hang out with the blokes, or it could be scoring a good campsite at next years Tuff Truck, …

Whatever your reason get in touch and lend us a hand.
