Dear friends

 

Thanks for signing up on this drive, which was planned since long . A bit of a challenge to take a newbie convoy in an area famous among offraoders and generally kept for Fewbie or above levels. Do not get intimidated by the sheer sight of big dunes, tall slopes, bowls and super soft sand. Not to forget some crazy drivers/convoys zipping past.

Considering the fantastic sign ups - as listed above, with support from @M.Seidam and @marks (good to see you after a long time) we will be hoping to have a fantastic time. We will wait till Thursday as to how everything will shape up in terms of drop outs / adjustments to balance all the drives at Carnity.

Please prep your cars and make sure they are in the best of their conditions for this challenging terrain. Come prepared with a good nights sleep, lot of patience as I/we expect to have a good share of recoveries /rerouting/ redirecting happening. Please do review the newbie video and remember stick to the basics. 

 

 @Veedooshee @Alex Raptorand @Senthil Kumar bring in a lot of experience too on this drive and I hope to involve them in a way which will be helpful to all.

Enjoy your week at work!

dear @Alex Raptor. I have corrected the location as below on my PC . Not sure what was the technical glitch as I entered it from my Android mobile phone.

That was a lot of fun, thanks everyone. Everyone did amazingly well in this challenging area, and gives you a taste of things to come. Not one tug today, all self recoveries, very impressive. Hope you get the car sorted @YazGayed . Great idea to fill the air tanks with Nitrous oxide, that would be very funny, I will leave that with @M.Seidam and @Chaitanya D to requisition suitable supplies!!! Enjoy your weekends.

Totally agree @Alex Raptor, fantastic driving for the little challenges thrown . Great convoy discipline and coordination too.

Yup, we will plan some laughter drives with that monster tank filled with nitrous 😜🤣
