9TH RALLY EDITION: OCTOBER 10 – 19, 2024

#147

Dead Reckoning

Joining the team for 2024 is navigator Lisa DeLuca. Lisa is an accomplished driver and previously competed in the Rebelle in 2022. She is eager to take on the challenge of navigating the Rebelle and becoming a well rounded competitor. Lani returns to Team Dead Rec as pilot of her beloved Bronco, Hank.

We each came away from our rookie years proud of what we were able to accomplish but confident that we can do better next time. We bring to the Rebelle our love of learning and tackling new challenges, competitive spirit, and our drive to solve problems that seem impossible.

Also let’s stop finding a new witch of the week and burning them at the stake. We are all horrible and wonderful and figuring it out. —Harris Wittels

Fun Fact:

I like to pretend Danny Trejo is my uncle. But he isn’t.

Why the Rebelle? Why now?

I’ve watched the Rebelle for years as a fan and competed last year as a rookie. I'm returning to the Rebelle because know I can do better with everything I learned last year.

Who, or what, inspires you most?

My fellow Rebelles, Laura Moore and Holly Casey, AKA the BAGS (Bad Ass Grandmas). I hope I’m still adventuring in the tail end of my seventh decade like Laura. And Holly’s endless enthusiasm for all things Rebelle is infectious. I am so grateful for all the training opportunites we’ve had with them this past year.

Fun Fact:

I married my high school sweetheart.

Why the Rebelle? Why now?

I have wanted to compete in the Rebelle since its inception. I am a competitive person by nature, and I also love the camaraderie that comes with getting a group of women together who are passionate about what they love to do. After starting and growing my family it was time for me to compete in 2022. I am back this time to see what I can bring to the precision navigation aspects of the competition.

Who, or what, inspires you most?

I feel the most inspired by music and being out in nature.
