BRONCO® BRAND SENDS THREE TEAMS TO REBELLE RALLY; LOOKS FOR THREE-PEAT WITH BRONCO SPORT IN X-CROSS™ CATEGORY
OCT 6, 2022 | DEARBORN, MICH.
DEARBORN, Mich., Oct. 6, 2022 – Bronco, Ford’s outdoor brand of Built Wild and only-4x4 SUVs, will attempt to make it three victories in a row at the Rebelle Rally’s X-Cross bone stock class when it takes Bronco Sport™ back to the event today. The Bronco Sport will join a Bronco two-door and four-door at the all-woman outdoor navigation competition.
Melissa Clark, a Bronco Moab Off-Roadeo Trail Guide and 2021 X-Cross winner, will team up with Chris Benzie, a veteran Rebelle Rally navigator and semi-retired aerospace engineering executive, to go for the three-peat. X-Cross is one of two categories at the rally and features two-wheel or all-wheel drive vehicles. The other class is 4x4 for, naturally, four-wheel drive vehicles, like the full-size Bronco.
In addition to showcasing the off-road ability of the vehicle entries, the Rebelle Rally is designed to challenge the navigation skills of the participants. The event will start in Incline Village, Nevada, on Oct. 6, wind its way across rugged terrain in Nevada and California, and finish in the Imperial Sand Dunes in southern California on Oct. 15. Each team consists of a driver, navigator, and their vehicle, with no personal support crews allowed. Participants spend their nights camping along the way.
Professional driver and Bronco Brand Ambassador Shelby Hall teams up again with Penny Dale, an experienced navigator in the 4x4 class. They will navigate the 1,500-plus mile terrain in a Bronco Wildtrak™ with a HOSS 3.0 System Package upgrade.
The HOSS 3.0 System Package includes FOX™ 2.5-inch Internal Bypass Dampers, Ford Performance severe-duty steering rack and tie rod ends, a front steel bumper and front steel bash plate.
Hall and Dale previously won the X-Cross class in 2020 with Bronco Sport and finished fourth in the 4x4 class last year.
Kathryn Reinhardt (driver), director of marketing at off-road accessory supplier 4 Wheel Parts, and Victoria Bundrant (navigator), marketing coordinator at 4 Wheel Parts, will showcase a customized Bronco Badlands upfitted by 4 Wheel Parts in the 4x4 category. With a 21st place finish during their rookie year now under their belts, the pair is ready to improve in this year’s event.
