Dr. @Chaitanya D & bro @Lakshmi Narasimhan, you both inspired and ignited the passion for my drives! 😄  Looking forward to driving with you again some time.

@Karthikeyan Govindarajan bro, i may have done this as a response to @Mus_hus78's challenge, but i had a consulting talk with Marshal @Frederic last night: it's not about driving fast & technical all the time, and that's why I sometimes joined the Newbie drives... you can still learn some things from a drive which is not your "status" level. Don't fret about no Fewbie this week in AD, there is still Marshal @Srikumar's Newbie drive this weekend: you can learn a lot from being 2nd lead or Sweeper. Plus when I was driving Newbie with @Asif Hussainbhai, he "inserted" a couple of challenges into it, so it's still fun even though not to the "status" level 😁
