The Dark Zone: An Adventure Racing Podcast

14/11/2024

One of the more popular types of TDZ episodes is the in-race Flash Episode in which RD’s, Dotwatchers, and race personnel offer real time race updates and information.

Thank you to Nic Wynia for capturing our episode at Rootstock Racing’s Two Rivers AR which served as the 2024 North American Championship.

(and yes, I came straight from a Halloween party. DunKing in the house.)

AR Fans - TDZ has the honor and privilege of bringing a wide variety of perspectives and voices to the AR World, and no official UIPM representative has ever approached any TDZ representative to share their logic, plans, or future hopes for Adventure Racing. We view their desire to include AR under their umbrella as misleading at best and disingenuous at worst.

If they want to speak to the AR community via TDZ, please consider this post to be an open invitation to do so. DM’s are open.
