Afternoon Fewbie Plus Desert Drive - Qudra - Dubai - 10 Nov 2021


Chaitanya D

Recommended Posts

Thank you Dr. @Chaitanya D for last afternoon + semi-night drive. Well I only manage to break one side of rear bumper, so either I'm lucky or just getting better 😁

Started off with a warm-up of safari-style offroading, sighteeing the beautiful Qudra area, then *ehm *cough circling some Instagram celebrities, continuing to pick-up Charlie for a no-man-left-behind-even-though-he's-late camaraderie 👍 😄

@Hisham Masaad led the pre-sunset drives very well, lots of ups-and-downs and some technical soft dunes. So soft that once my Y62 tank passed an uphill, it left @Zixuan Huang - Charlie stuck for a bit 😂 

The duo Dr. Chaitanya & co-pilot @M.Seidam then continued the post-sunset drive. M. Seidam managed to get his car uphill to escape the narrow bowl, while Hisham took the backdoor approach, and amazingly @Batuhan Kulac refused to get stuck in the same bowl by the mighty power of his V8... I wonder when I can see you use the Triple Locking feature of that G-Wagon? 😁

It was easy driving behind @Russ with his Raptor, all I have to do is observe when his car tailfish or struggle a bit, that means I need to take a shortcut and drive low instead of forcing to climb... as @GauravSoni would have put it, "Save your bumper man!😂

@Pacific it was nice seeing you again man, and coincidentally in another afternoon-turned-night drive 😄

@Rawad bro everytime you park your car, the cooling fan is louder than your V8 engine 😂 Good to see another Y62, and I can see the rear bumper trimming + skid plate protection working as advertised. Gonna go to that garage next week to make the mall-crawler into a just-in-case-needs-to-go-to-Liwa-for-camping desert cruiser 😃

would just like to add that I appreciate what we all have here. Carnity is not just a club, it is a community where I personally feel geniuenly welcome

@Batuhan Kulac thanks for the appreciation and welcome back after a gap. With the G , you are bringing your best skills (great to see how you have progressed)with it which makes it even more envious for all in the convoy. As @Zed mentioned I tried my best to get you into a situation to make use of the three lockers , but probably another time 😜🤣

@Zed your enthusiasm and energy to come all the way from Abu Dhabi for a weekday drive and enjoy is commendable. From my Newbie days, and the time we drove together it has been a pleasure to have you. Well done
