Are you capable of outwitting and outcompeting your opponents in a series of physical and mental challenges?
Enter the 2022 Toyota Fortuner Challenge and you might win a brand new Fortuner 2.4 DG-6 4×2, valued at around R620 000, as well as the ultimate bragging rights.
But what can you anticipate if you are chosen as one of this year’s four contestants?
The event is scheduled for early October, and registration will finish on September 14. Each competitor will be paired with a hero-celebrity chosen at random the morning of the event.
This year’s heroes include the well-known fitness expert Grace Motswana, the South African rugby union and Cheetahs player Oupa Mohoje, the Dakar-winning rally driver Giniel de Villiers, and the Olympic silver medal-winning surfer Bianca Buitendag.
The competitors and their hero companions will spend the day attempting to outsmart and outperform their opponents. Nobody knows for certain what the 2022 tournament will entail, but participants may anticipate a series of events throughout the day that will likely feature intense 4×4 driving, as well as cycling and water-based obstacles. If you have ever constructed a raft out of logs, rope, and drums, it is likely to work in your favor, therefore water comfort is a must.
Last year’s winners, commercial pilot Anneri Kemp and Giniel de Villiers, established that you don’t need to be a big, burly man to win. Being physically well and mentally robust will be of great assistance.
Given that Garmin will once again be a partner this year, you may wish to brush up on your navigational skills as well. It may also be useful to brush up on your knowledge of the African continent, particularly its countries. However, be prepared for any situation, since the organizers may have several surprises in store for the day.
When all challenges have been completed, points are tallied and verified before announcing the winner of the Fortuner Challenge.
Naturally, entering the competition is the easiest step.
