<\/p>\nThe return of off-road rally legend Edd Cobley will see him compete in the British Cross Country Championships in June.<\/p>\n
Piloting his new custom-built Land Rover 110 doublecab – named Skippy 2.0 – the three-time Land Rover Defender Rally Champion and Hill Rally Championship winner will compete in the 4-round national series fitted with Davanti Tyres\u2019 impressive Terratoura A\/T tyres.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
And Edd – one of the faces of Davanti\u2019s ‘Make It Happen’ campaign – has his sights set on the British Cross Country Championship title.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019ve waited a long time for this,\u201d he said. \u201cI\u2019ve built Skippy 2.0 to win titles and that\u2019s my plan, plain and simple.<\/p>\n
\u201cChoosing Terratoura A\/T tyres for this made perfect sense. I\u2019ve been working with these tyres for a couple of years now and I know exactly how well they perform no matter how extreme the challenge.<\/p>\n
\u201cEvery driver knows that tyre choice is critical. They are your sole point of contact. When you are hurtling around a loose, unpredictable off-road rally course at speed you are even more dependent on them. You need full confidence in your tyres to push everything to the limit and I can honestly say, I trust Terratoura.<\/p>\n
\u201cMy target is to win the championship. That\u2019s why I have insisted on working with the best engineers and parts suppliers, like Davanti, to get Skippy 2.0 ready for action.<\/p>\n
Davanti Tyres director of sales and marketing for the UK and Ireland Sean Maddocks is looking forward to seeing the Terratoura A\/T battle-tested by Edd in race action.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s an incredible place to be,\u201d he said. \u201cWhen we launched Terratoura A\/T as an all-purpose all-terrain tyre we never considered it as a race tyre.<\/p>\n
\u201cBut Edd has put it through some incredible off-road tests at the East of England Land Rover Centre over the last few years and it has comfortably conquered them all.<\/p>\n
\u201cRecent tests at race pace with Skippy 2.0 have also shown Terratoura A\/T to be well suited to off-road racing. All that remains now is to enjoy watching Edd launch his campaign!\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
