    POST DRIVE REPORT Thank you all for being ready for the briefing promptly at 2:00 pm. As everyone was FB+ or above, and with agreement from both drivers and passengers, we upgraded the drive to FB+ and were into the desert shortly after the briefing. The first patch in Murquab proved a little challenging for the long-wheelbase Wildtrack, even with the track being adjusted with the vehicle in mind. With a little more practice, particularly in choosing the best lines for the longer wheelbase, Iā€™m sure this will quickly become a non-issue. Remember that good spacing is important, as it gives you the best chance of seeing and following the line taken by the car ahead. Our second patch in Murquab was much more playful, with some nice hill climbs, ridges, sidies and loops. After exploring the area, we crossed the sabkha and made our way to the sand track towards Qudra, where we stopped for a short break and some social time. From there, the sand track took us to our next entry point in Qudra, where we worked through another technical section before reaching the larger dunes we had been aiming for. Once through the transition, we arrived at our first play area and explored it quite thoroughly before enjoying a more leisurely run towards the second play area. That section was good fun as well, although we gradually started scaling things back as we worked our way towards the exit. During the second half of the drive, we had a few refusals and a couple of stucks. The self-recoveries were handled very well, and the few stucks were cleared quickly with good teamwork from the convoy. Well done. We also had a few early exits from ridges and sidies, as well as a couple of occasions where cars exited to the opposite side. In each case, the convoy reacted correctly by steering down and following. These are exactly the safety actions we talk about during the briefing. They keep the convoy predictable and, most importantly, help prevent accidents. Overall, you all drove really well through a route that had a good mix of faster sections, technical patches and opportunities to play. A big thank you to @W a q a rfor Sweep and @Hartzel for Second Lead, and to everyone for the great teamwork throughout the afternoon. The track we made yesterday is below. Have a great weekend, everyone, and see you in the sand next time! šŸœļøšŸŖ

    Good morning Mark. Getting a stacatto clipping sound every few tyre rotations as I was coming to the petrol station now that wasn't there last night... I'd probably have to go get it checked at the workshop before doing another drive. Sorry about this last minute but I'll not be joining the drive today.
