The Brief

How This Works

$1,000 Spending Cap

Your car must cost $1,000 or less, all-in. Receipts required at check-in. We will do the math.

Gravel Roads Only

No pavement shortcuts. If it's paved, it's off-limits. The whole point is the gravel.

No GPS or Phone Maps

Navigation packages are printed and distributed at the start. You figure it out.

Teams of Two

One driver, one navigator. No solo entries. You need each other out there.

Staggered 15–30 Min Starts

Teams launch in sequence. Fastest total time to the finish wins. This is not a parade.

Finish: Turkey Hill Ranch

Turkey Hill Ranch Bible Camp, Missouri. Cross the line, park the beater, eat something.

The Competitors

Meet the Teams

#02

Holy Rollers

Marcus Webb & Danny Pruitt

1994 Ford Ranger · $850

We washed it once. It didn't take. Marcus found this truck on Facebook Marketplace described as 'runs most days.' That was good enough for us.

#03

Prodigal Sons

Josh Halter & Ryan Cole

2001 Chevy S10 · $970

Our car smells like grace and used motor oil. Ryan cried a little at the dealership, but we're choosing to believe it was allergies.

#04

Daily Bread

Tom Finch & Brett Larkin

1998 Dodge Dakota · $780

She's ugly. She's slow. She's ours. We named her Mildred and we're sorry for what we're about to put her through.
