munkybizness Posted July 12, 2021 Report Share Posted July 12, 2021 Hi Srikumar, I have a Y61 Nissan Patrol Super Safari that I’ve picked up a few months ago. I’ve taken a couple of classes with Galadari for offroad driving so I have basic knowledge and have self-driven once after that. My car has front & rear tow hooks, and I have a portable compressor on hand. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a first timer, we highly recommend driving alone for the first drive to avoid any distractions that can cause serious issue sometimes. From the second drive onward you are most welcome to bring your friends and family in your car as a passenger. 1 Let's root for each other & watch each other grow.
