“We have always been drawn to telling stories about ordinary people that attempt the extraordinary.” - The Flying Canter Brothers.
Chasing the Horizon is an insider’s look at the race that is considered to be the most grueling
off-road race in the world. The teams race almost every kind of vehicle through 1000 miles of the
treacherous Baja desert - where danger lurks around every curve, and potential pitfalls lie over
every horizon.
The Flying Canter brothers provide an intimate look at a rookie off-road racing team attempting this granddaddy of all races. We follow three men who come together to form a dysfunctional pseudo-family called ‘Team Horizon’: Jeff Lloyd, once a homeless teenager and now a self-made millionaire/racecar driver, Milo Brown the cantankerous ex-con, junkyard owner and team captain, and Toby O’Mara, chief
mechanic, co-driver and plumber by trade. They discover what it takes physically, mentally, and
emotionally to follow the dream of one man who is not only trying to win a race – but also trying to
bring his family, friends and team together to experience life in the moment. Before long they discover
the truth in the old adage, ‘life’s a journey - not a destination’.
