Week 6 of the Nomad Overland Rally saw more teams completing their 12 Overland Stages, more Falken Precision Challenges completed and more Stewardship activities undertaken. We now have seven teams with over 3,000 points, and more than half the teams have surpassed the 1,000 level. There was some shuffling around the top of the Leaderboard again this week, but Team 117 Lucas has managed to keep a hold on first place for the fourth week in a row, with a whopping 4,486 points. Team 121 Rojas (aka DOGRNR) climbed back into second place with 4,115 points, and Team 110 Smigiel jumped into third place with 4,000 points. The Week 6 Challenge, “Roadbooks and Maps,” gave the Teams a chance to test their skills with Rally Roadbook navigation, and many of them did quite well with it. Teams still have one more week to complete it. Meanwhile Challenge #7 was released this morning and it’s a fun, hands-on, one — “Ropes and Knots.”
