Thanks @Gaurav bai ,  Carnity and the entire Marshals for the good news and the appreciation. I would say one thing in this moment that if i was not joined in Carnity off-road club i would have never think of driving in desert and a passion in off-roading. Still leaning and need to learn lot of things with all good people and experts in the club.

Special thanks to all the marshals 😊

Mr. @Shiju Manuel from the first drives at Carnity where you were a little tentative to seeing you scale the heights and slopes in recent weeks, the development in your driving has been fantastic to watch. I am delighted for you that you reached this level within Carnity, which is totally deserved. 

I look forward to watching your continued development and growth in the club and driving with you on many more drives. 

This is a really pleasing promotion. 

Yes @Wrangeld i do remember that, you sit with me in my car one of my newbie drive and given lots of confidence to over come the fear of heights and slopes. Thanks for all the support and guidance and love to drive with you and learn lots of things. See you soon in Sand. Cheers
