Thank you @Emanuel, @Andrei S & @J-P L for a professional drive. The arrangement was better that I expected. the drive was a good reminder on some of the skills and handling overall. I enjoyed it and hope to join future drives when they become available. I would like to join drives with longer trails and higher speeds to enjoy my cars capabilities more. But again this was good practice and it was a good group.

Hi @Emanuel thank you for the drive and guidance! We had plenty room for practice and skills enhancement!

Imaginary Toyota also gets 100km per single litre of fuel! 😜 Yeah long break! I'm ready to get back to it! @_Herman_ Plenty more drives coming up. We'll have a coffee together soon. Cheers! @Sebastian Nohse

That was 3 months, @_luke_?? Unbelievable… Good to have you back!! Oh and new cars need extra drives, but you knew that, right? I now also want another car: the absolutely fantastic imaginary Toyota from your movieposter!!

Here is the Relive video of our drive. Enjoy. https://video.relive.cc/7390021676871_289df0440efd-ca29-a3b4-33be-5cbf72b2_relive-tracker_1786851935423.mp4?x-ref=site

We managed to cover about 30 kms which is good considering it was a Newbie drive and the terrain. Looking at the elevation profile it is evident we had some good variation and small hill climbs throughout.

Post Drive Report We had a wonderful drive yesterday morning. Thank you everyone for showing up on time and ready for briefing at 6 am; however, one driver showed up at the wrong meeting point for Lisali. He joined us there shortly after. It's important to check the full drive post and location. We set off at about 6:30 am heading into the desert via the community road and camel track. After entering the desert we reset the spacing between some of the cars up front which was mostly maintained during the drive. We headed east as planned with some challenges to practice new skills with some of our newer drivers. The dunes got progressively taller and longer with patches of soft sand to add into the mix. There were many learning opportunities for both a few drivers and for our support team members, thank you! These opportunities are what contributes to newer driver confidence and skill building and helps support team members eventually become great drive leads. We didn't go as far south as planned though we did complete the loop and exit at one of the two planned locations and on time. Overall, considering the convoy members and the challenges we faced, you all drove really well. A big shout out to @Andrei S and @J-P L for supporting the drive. You were both pretty busy with stucks, refusals and one pop-out. Thanks @khurramm for being second lead. @Richard Jowett I'll be removing you from the drive this morning though I'm glad you were able to drive with @Chris Meir and get a good taste of what's to come. Sounds like all your car issues will be sorted for the next drive. Nonetheless, welcome to Carnity. Also a warm welcome to @Khalid Sharaf to Carnity and your first drive. Your previous experience was helpful. Would love to hear your feedback on your first drive with us and how it went for you. It was good to meet you @Jakob T. Overall you drove well though you were initially having challenges with low lines and hesitation on the side approaches. I have no doubt with another drive or two you will find the sweet spot to nail those. Keep it up please. It was good to meet you also @Asif Ahamed, @Avilash and @Chris Meir. Hope you had a fun morning out with us. Feel free to post your pictures in the Gallery for the drive. I'll be posting the Gaia drive track and the Relive video shortly.

Running late due to Fog.

No need to rush. Especially given Abu Dhabi has a blanket speed limit of 80 kph in fog (…the cameras will get you!).

There's insane levels of fog, I might be late

Good evening @DP1011 @ChrisW @Sam Selim so long story cut short, I’ll not be able to make it tomorrow morning as my AC has broken. The AC kind of broke on Chris’s drive last week, but it then miraculously fixed itself. After having checked I was given the all ok but on the way home today it broke again, I took it to the Auto pro garage near my house and it turns out my AC compressor has broken … not a lot I can do today; but I’ve got it booked in the garage for Monday. Apologies for this but it’s one of those things that can happen I suppose 🫣 hopefully I’ll be back with you guys next weekend.

Hi Deepack and Sam Unfortunately, my Front spring collar ripped off this afternoon on the jeep so wont be able to make it thank you sebastian

Hi Luke, great to see you back in the saddle……😎 unfortunately traveling in the week but can’t wait to whip up some iced lattes in the dunes …….. have a great drive all !
