Explorer Series: We launch a new series, where we dive into a particular domain and explore the dynamics of a profession, craft and art. On this 2-part series we curiously dive into the art of Rally Racing. Racing combines the best of engineering, road design and skill- It’s about the human and machine moving as one. Rally is one of the most unique forms of racing where you drive mostly with your feet, the road is completely unpredictable and communication in the cockpit is key.
Dave Carapetyan (aka Texas Dave), Founder & CEO of Rally Ready and Professional Rally Driver, has spent nearly 20 years sliding rally cars in the dirt and pushing the limits. This 11-time Pikes Peak and Baja 500 winner has learned a lot about himself and others through rally. He believes the more we know, the further we are from the destination, making it difficult to feel settled in what one has accomplished. Ego and the relentless pursuit for more is equally a superpower and liability in all of us, but those that can harness it are destined to change the world. Dave transformed his career as a racing driver into something that he can share with others. By introducing and teaching others the sport of rally, he has found a new gear. The greatest rally instructors sometimes have little to no experience in rally, but are highly empathetic, great listeners and understand People deeply. A great coach is not necessarily a great olympian. Dave shares that the journey has become the destination and winning is not as important. The further we chase the glory, the further we get away from our destination, because it will never be good enough. Get obsessed with the ride and loving others - You’ll arrive at your destination.
