Zulu Team

Zulu Team enters Project‑X as a pairing the field would be wise to watch closely. Martin Lourens and Rob van Brakel bring an engineer’s eye for detail, a racer’s instinct for pace, and a calmness forged through years of rally experience.

Both are newcomers to Project‑X, but nothing about them suggests inexperience. Their preparation is meticulous. They study, refine, and arrive ready.

Martin and Rob are friendly, composed, and highly capable riders who thrive under pressure. Their navigation sense, technical skill, and disciplined approach give them the confidence to aim high from day one.

Two engineers.
Two rally‑hardened competitors.
And a debut team with the potential to climb straight to the sharp end of the leaderboard.
