Frederic Posted November 1, 2021 Author Report Share Posted November 1, 2021 Dear @Rouaj i have removed your RSVP from this event as you have done the Absolute Newbie drive already. Please sign up for one of the available Newbie level drives. Dear @Yasin thanks for signing up. I have seen your introduction from last week. See you on Friday ! 20 hours ago, Mohamed Shawky said: Mohamed Shawky with black Dodge Ram . little off road experience and my car has front and rear tow points. thanks @Mohamed Shawky. Some Dodge Ram models come with a very low front bumper lip that easily gets damaged. Kindly check once if that can be removed or share a picture so we can see which edition it is. Thanks.
