Updated convoy list

Hi @JeromeFJ, we were on time but now running 5 minutes late as we had to go around for refueling.

@JeromeFJ. During the Last drive I had broken my crankshaft sensor. Yesterday evening got the car back from the workshop after replacing it. Was on my way right now but the engine is making strange sound ( as if I am driving on 4 hi ) and my dashboard is showing system fault. I am turning back home now. Will take my car back to the workshop. Hopefully see you on the next drive.

It was my honour to have driven with @Frederic and the Safari. All the best to the new owner.

Sorry to miss you @Brett Eicher

@Rafey Hashmi @Cha Thanks for this input and eagerness to help out. my friend appreciates it. Take care guys 😎

Sorry @JeromeFJ I'll have to remove myself, my AC Compressor started smoking earlier and making a weird grinding sound. I tried poking around with it, but... I think the internals fused together and I can't seem to get it to declutch. Back to the garage we go.... 😝

Thanks @Ale Vallecchi for the amazing, fast paced drive today. Great to see @Nicolò and @Sunil Mathew Lots of bowls and climbs today followed by some technical dunes. Interesting to see the different colors of sand in the same area - red where we started off, changed to yellowish with darker bits and finished in almost red again. Visibility got pretty bad there towards the end - so hard to read the shape of the dunes with the sun getting low in the sky Great idea by the way for the 3 Emirate tour this weekend. Sharjah done! Looking forward to Dubai tomorrow and Abu Dhabi on Sunday 😁

@Davie Chase Unless we saw the pole, it won't fit. Happy to cut it if you have a hacksaw 😅

@Julien Recan @Aser @Brett Eicher @Gurcharan Mehta @azad @Gautam Banka Last updates for tomorrow Meeting at 06:00 am at https://maps.app.goo.gl/r5LPyKms6XuG5Un58 The convoy order will be We will use Carnity Radio Frequency 5. Take a good rest, and see you tomorrow morning !

@Looper hope you get this sorted soon and get back in the sand @Mahesh_, @Rk ram, @Ishak, @Gertjan, @Batuhan Kulac, @Charbel I will advise the Convoy order tomorrow and we will use Ch4 446.081

I will make it on time inshallah just in case i might be 15 minutes late maximum

Sadly may car has some issue with the wiring since last week’s drive and they are trying to diagnose the issue. There is some kind of earthing somewhere on the car and unfortunately the mechanics haven’t been able to find the short. Meanwhile @Davie Chase has been godsend and has agreed to take the convoy on a wonderful adventure. To be frank I would have loved to be at the back on the drive led by @Davie Chase so you guys are in for a great drive. Have fun guys. @Mahesh_, @Rk ram, @Ishak, @Gertjan, @Batuhan Kulac, @Charbel

@carlstanley we will have a look tomorrow morning and see if we can resolve you flag issue. You will need to get this fixed before your next drive but I am sure we can get you sorted in the morning

Thanks for organising this @Davie Chase I've been on a Newbie training with Gaurav and looking forward to joining my first group drive. I've watched the video and have all the gear in the list, including radio. The only thing is my flag mount isn't correct so I can't mount my flag. Feel free to text me or call if it's a problem. See you nice and early tomorrow!

Hi @Giacomo @Victor Socaciu @Fares Adel @nithish468 looks like we are going to have a short convoy which means we can do a bit more exploration in the night wilderness. Brace yourself for a lot of fun and excitement. We shall be using Carnity Channel 3 (446.056) for this drive. Convoy numbering would be decided at the meeting point. @TIMMY you are on the manage tab. Are you joining this drive? If so, will shift you to the going tab.
