Srikumar Posted February 16, 2021 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2021 @Yahya Muniri as explained earlier by Frederic and then by Gaurav, the Absolute Newbie drive is reserved for first timers with Carnity. Please sign up for the Newbie drives, and in case if they are full, put your name on the Waitlist and the trip lead would add you if a space opens up. I am removing your name from this drive. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As in creating a new profile but with the same car? (it’ll be a one off to know if she’s into it so I’d truly appreciate if you can approve this one. I’m happy to be charged extra on my renewal but it’s just a hassle to create an ID for a single drive). Thanks in advance. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
