Now you have a new opportunity to test your bravery.
To the max.
Scale vertical lava ash. Spew rocks across counties.
Scream into your helmet, noone will hear you.
Rise, and fall, as time warps.
Play tricks on gravity and other laws of nature.
To the tune of a nitrous-injected dragster engine. |

It's the wildest circus in the world.
It´s a hugely popular competition series us Icelanders call "Formula Off-road”.
The kick of being strapped into one of those things madly wrestled around in anger by a champion viking driver will reset your thrill-meter. Up and down crazy slopes the feeling of sheer power, the noise, the grip from glued-on paddle tires - It's intoxicating. All you have to do is order and show up - we strap you in and take care of the rest. Yes, the bags to take the content of your stomach too. Just in case.
Formula Offroad never harms nature. The venues are basalt gravel pits and disused lava quarries. |
