You’re doing great, looking awesome, almost to work, you got a speed bump coming up, perfect, hang a left at the McDonald’s, outstanding ! 4 ,4, 4, overcrest, hard 190... and you’re at work. Great job 😆😆😆
This navigator is totally the driver's hype man, and I'm here for that. Around 9:25 driver apologizes for a hard hit, and navigator says "felt good, I like it!"
This video is the first time I've ever really understood how important the navigator is. I honestly had no idea how many different aspects they bring to the table, but seeing it and HEARING it, is a big eye opener! These guys are 100% every bit as important as the driver! I never realized that before. I saw them more as a co-driver, maybe a backup, someone to get directions and sure they stay on the right track, maybe telling a little info about the track ahead etc. I had no idea they were that essential. It explains why these drivers can drive all out, all the time, constantly keeping the vehicle at the very top edge if it's performance capability, and still finish the race without being plastered up side of a rock somewhere, or scattered in pieces across a desert floor. These guys are the reason why these drivers can drive like they do. And I see that, it must be vitally important for the driver to be able to fully trust the navigator with their life, and vice versa. Navigators everywhere owe you folks an appreciation, because I've never seen a video that shows their importance like this.
Solo runs would double the length of time of the race, with 50-70% broke from overruning corners. It's near impossible to memorize a 400 mile race and which turn it was that had the big rock that will flip you not to be confused with the one that has a ditch on the outside to roll you over . Closest I've ever done was Sonora,ca to Mariposa,ca on highway 49 it's 60 miles in 60min hundreds of corners some of them triple switchbacks (5_6over crest ; 2_1 190°Left 1_2! 2_1 190°Right 1_2, 2_1 190°L 1_2! 2_1 190°R 1_2,2_1 190°L 1_2, 2_1 190°R 1_2 ) all with in 1mi of road 1\8mi (660'200M)as the crow flys , with 5mph apexes. Not to mention the fact that it was a moonless night about 1am and there's no guardrail between you and the 1000 foot drop or a rockwall on the other. This team should be able to run this section going in blind in 45 or less with the 905 extra hp , race tuned suspension, 4wheel traction . Add codriver and now we're looking at closer to 25-30mim. Instinct is very difficult to outskill enjoy the day.
@@daviddroescher I appreciate this feedback from an experienced person. I absolutely can believe it would take twice as long, and half still not finish, if there were no co-drivers. This is TRULY a situation where BOTH of them, are controlling that car. I see it now, the co-driver is not just a human GPS nav system, he is the brain, thats telling the drivers hands and feet what to do with the car! And I imagine... it's possibly a good thing in some ways, that it's a moonless night, because you CAN'T see how far that drop-off is, how close you are to death... I imagine that would be more nerve-racking than driving "blind" with a co-driver you trust. I'd love to learn more about that.
True, same like in rally driving, without co-pilot it does not work, it's team work. But kind of weird how he motivates and cheer up the driver, would drive me nuts
This is one of the sickest onboards I've ever seen, in any motorsport. Insane truck, insane course, dialed in driver and co-pilot. Excellent footy boys keep it coming.
I love seeing this and it letting me understand that, when this navigator says "GO GO GO!" He's not just sending encouragement or hype or boosting up the driver's mood etc. He's letting the driver know "okay there's nothing to worry about ahead, you can put the hammer down!" It's obvious because he NEVER says that until the driver has cleared an obstacle, curve, jump etc and the way in front of them is clear enough to really get on it & shove that pedal through the floor. Without that "GO GO GO!" There's no way the driver can know if it's safe over that Hill or when he clears the jump, and he'd have to either eventually wreck or play it safe and back off the pedal. Well that's a navigator there's no way these guys can drive like that on races this long without totaling the vehicle before they cross the finish line. This video is giving me a whole new respect for and Outlook of the navigator.
Hands down the absolute best trophy truck video on RUclips. Who needs hype Music when you have this guy in your ear. Both of them blow my mind how they're on the same level.
That Co driver is the shit. Dude you could navigate Stevie wonder thru 500 miles. You stayed positive, always making the driver feel good about the next corner ahead. Thank you for sharing. I have been to many races years ago with a friend Stuart Chase and his son Eric, I know how much goes into this, and I have never seen a cop driver that good.
This was such a great video 👌 I'm about to take on my first Baja 1000 (as pretty much my first race ever) and this is super helpful to give an idea of how it actually is 🤙
It was awesome, amazing ride! Best ever first row footage video! I can't imagine what pilot driver see and feel with all that adrenaline. It should be an attraction in Disney; Ride with Chris and Johnny in Baja.
Watched the whole video and the end was? Tap the starter with a hammer? I usually just threw the hammer at the stater. 72 and you learn something new everyday!
I feel incredible watching this. Terrifying but amazing. I feel like you’d need to be on something to be sharp enough with so much adrenaline pumping. I bet their exhausted when it’s over.
@@yuron8210 lmao you’re hating in the RUclips comments section and they’re out racing in a 500$k fully built desert trophy truck and having the time of their lives, just saying. don’t pretend you aren’t jealous. Gay little kid
Never shut off engine in the middle of race unless it is absolutely necessary....The LS engine's starter motor is so close to exhaust manifold and it often got over heat during the race....once engine is off, you will have to wait a long time to cool it down before able to restart again.
It sounds like the copilot is well aware of the expense this whole thing costs but also well aware they are there to have fun and drive fast. Copilot did a great job and l couldnt see any mistakes on his part. Id say the copilot was also a paid professional and the driver was someone with alot of money and an awesome hobby
This is very good. Pure technical and educative. Kudos to the drivers and Big ups to the Nav guy. At the beginning the driver asked if the AUTOPILOT is on. I want to know what the Autopilot does in this vehicle? Loving this vid. I hope to oneday drive in Baja 1000. Greetings from Ghana.
Legend has it that the copilot is still saying GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO
Bashes starter and/or solenoid with hammer/wrench/rock. Truck starts. Go Go Go!. I'm dead. Because every person ever who has had a truck "of a certain age" will have done EXACTLY this, more than once.
From what I saw here, what differentiate Baja and Dakar (or Raid Rally in general) are the race length and the navigation system. These guys use GPS compared to Raid Rally that only uses roadbook. Correct me if I'm wrong, because I still have no clue what make it more different from the vehicle spec.
I would like to know what coffee brand the co driver is drinking! Go go go! Love it.😆 Great video guys. Brings be back to my co driving days. Miss that. A lot.
I need a co plot to motivate me like that when I drive to work
LMAO. Too funny
I feel like having someone tell me how fast to hit the jumps would make my commute a fair bit safer too.

Professional. Big money and skill.
Driver: Sorry
Passenger: No I fucking love it!!!
A real bro at the end of the day. Like someone else said, they do not have a Samir and Co driver relationship hahah
for realabsolutely beautiful navigation by co driver.
Love. This. Video. It. Is. Awesome😊
these guys are like the opposite of Samir and his codriver.
🤣😂 Samir!!!
Stop you’re breaking the car
*Samir! You are breaking the car!!!, please stop this!*
Samir: No.
Samir please listen to the coms!!! SAMIR!!!!
Samir!!!you have to listen to me Samir!!! Nooo!!!

Some of the best footage I’ve seen. Thank you for not putting music on this work of art!
I skip the video when music comes on props to the passenger just calling it out
Listenking to the motor eat is good for the soul!
This is one of the coolest video experiences ever, wow I actually felt like I was in that truck! Thank you for sharing your race!

We wore in the truck
Yeah me too completely awesome

The purest form of auto racing! Thank you for sharing this!
I think I dropped a kidney just watching this! Talk about team work, AMAZING!!! 100% out of control while maintaining total control, love it!!
Only took me 15 seconds to like these guys. Great attitude
Dude! Props to that co pilot
Awesome driving mate
Watched this entire thing! This was really well done. Love the raw audio.
Can you imagine breaking down in the desert , and having to hitchhike out, and these dudes pick you up for a lift into town!!
I think I'll walk back to town lol
Thanks for posting this to RUclips and especially thank you for not adding irritating music to the content. Really enjoyed watching.
Some of the best onboard footage I've seen from the Baja, hell yeah!
This is how a team should be. AWESOME work guys!
Love the communication back and forth and the praise give to each other.🤜🤛
This is one of the most incredible onboards I have ever seen, gossssh what a RUSH!!!!

You still gonna do it man?
when you're already going 5 and the navigator says 5-6, poggers
Shoutout to not only the very talented driver but also the co driver for motivating him and making good calls
This has to be one of the coolest videos I've ever seen. I wish there was more footage of the driver-codriver interaction.
Thank you for the content guys! Amazing how driver and navigator gel, keeping this rig planted and safe.
You guys work really well together, great video! Good luck in 2022 season!!
Hell this got my adrenaline going.. Love it
As if I didn't want a trophy truck already. What a ride! I could almost taste the dust.
It was awesome, amazing ride!
Best ever first row footage video!
I can't imagine what pilot driver see and feel with all that adrenaline.
It should be an attraction in Disney; Ride with Chris and Johnny in Baja.
Excellent racing Cantina. Long live Baja
This is amazing, and why I keep coming back to RUclips is content like this. Great job.
This video is crystal clear!!! It brings so much memories playing Dirt 2” , nothing compares to in Cam. Gives me goosebumps 🤟🤟🤟 Great job team
I wish this video was longer, I'll be rewatching this for sure.
So much professional work behind that beast. Go! Go! Go! Go!
Love this! They work incredibly well together, as expected, but damn cool to listen to!!

Baja 🇲🇽 is for the real men and that's what you guys are
This was awesome. Thanks for a taste of that trophy truck magic
This was Awesome!!!! Please upload more onboard pov video ;)
Damn that’s a nice truck, must be insane to have that kind of power and suspension.
this is the best onboard ive ever watched.
I still come back to video every now and then!
such a smooth and beautiful run guys great job love the action this shit is so soothing to watch just so much freedom.
Yo u guys are just getting started and youve had some great results already, keep up the good work! Thanks for posting great video
Dang that’s intense and awesome at the same time! Stuff you’ll never forget! 👍
That Co-pilot wanted full speed ahead. Great video🤙🏾
19:34 what a co-pilot! Ripped that thing up and shared lol
This is the best video ever!! I felt like I was in the truck.
first time a see a codriver give rally style indications in baja... 😎
Man and machine at it's finest...
Those guy should be motivational speakers loved how calm they stayed
i love the co pilot always on top of hypin his driver. Kept him in high spirits n chugging on strong 🔥👍🏽
Yeah co pilot is a rock star....on top of his game!.....makes a world of difference I am sure
Damn.. Love racing my buddies but this a whole new level.
This navigator knows his shit !
Awesome video!! Reminds of my class 7 days… crew chief…love it!
The enthusiasm is awesome!
Great communication guys. Smooth driving. Decision decisions
Brandt is having so much fun!
Would be incredible to see some shots from the helicopter tracking you. You guys just rock !!!! 🌶
Respect for The pilot and Co-pilot! And good video i felt like if i was sit there filming and butterflyes in my stomach
What a great Nav man, awesome footage!!!!
Awesome video. Grew up thrashing in the dez.
This driver reminds me of a military pilot. Clear and all business.
Never shut off engine in the middle of race unless it is absolutely necessary....The LS engine's starter motor is so close to exhaust manifold and it often got over heat during the race....once engine is off, you will have to wait a long time to cool it down before able to restart again.
The guy riding shotgun is crazier than the cat driving. Them boys got big balls....great teamwork.
AWESOME VIDEO!!! PLEASE UPLOAD MORE VIDOES!!!
The co-pilots have huge balls of steel! I wouldn't want to be sitting in the passenger seat!
Badass teamwork. You guys f#%king rock.
really love that !! i feel like i'm in the truck with the guys!!
5-6 go go go! man that gave me chills. damn awesome!!!!
Man, you guys just made my Friday. Thank you!
Awsome, Felt like I was in the truck. Thanks!

I don't follow truck racing but found this freaking epic
