Inside the Defender Trophy. What It Really Takes to Compete
Justin from Lucky8 takes you inside the Defender Trophy North American event, walking through every challenge, task, and obstacle we faced in front of and behind the wheel of the new Defender. If you have ever wondered what it really takes to compete at this level, this is the real story from the driver seat. The Defender Trophy is a global competition that pushes drivers, navigators, and machines to the limit. Teams tackle precision driving challenges, technical off road stages, recovery tasks, and timed events that test everything you think you know about the platform. We came in ready to compete and came out with a whole new respect for what these trucks and these drivers can do. Lucky8 was proud to supply gear used throughout the event, including our spare tire mount, Rotopax mounts, and the Lucky8 Off Road Adventure Trailer featured in one of the stages. If you are building a Defender for real world capability, these are the same pieces we trust in competition. Watch the full Defender Trophy series and our other Defender builds on our channel.
