Wrangeld Posted November 11, 2021 Author Report Share Posted November 11, 2021 10 minutes ago, Frederic said: Good morning @Thomas Bushell. If you have not done any drives with our club, you will need to sign up for the Absolute Newbie drive first. (Unless if you have done a Masterclass already). @Thomas Bushell did an MC with me @Frederic. He is good for this drive. That's why we did not take any steps when he signed up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wrangeld Posted November 12, 2021 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2021 Post Drive Report Lehbab is challenging for newbies, it requires a lot of focus and concentration throughout - there's little relief because the sand is so deceptively soft that even when you think you are safe, you are not. Our route today took us South Westward from Lehbab through the soft swooping dunes that take us to the large open sabkhas and through a difficult technical patch and over the high pressure gas line. From there we headed more or less directly toward Lisaili slaughter house. In between a failed car, some rope pulls, self recoveries and some wonderful scenery and driving. Massive thanks to @Alex Raptor, stalwart and superb support throughout, @Jeepie digging far too much for a passenger and @Adam James in the centre. Also, not forgetting a wonderful 2nd lead from @Imteeaz Goolamhossen @Sudhanva Sonawane you introduced yourself as having the least powerful car. I did not notice, you drove fantastically well. Enjoy the fewbie drives you'll undoubtedly be on shortly. @BHANU PRAKASH VISHWANATH nice to see how you handle the Pajero on a difficult drive and at the back of the convoy. @Dinesh Kumar A I like your confidence (in measures and at the right time) but please make sure you don't oversteer on descents @Marcin Wronowski another star in a reasonably priced car. Glad to see that having passengers did not distract you from a good drive without too many issues @Thomas Bushell great upgrades and great to see the immediate development in your driving second time out. MOre delighted than anything to see you really are hooked! @Muhammad Qasim Good drive today and well controlled. Please sort out the flag and the rembering to make sure you see the person behind you as well as the person in front. @Harshad Ashraf You handle the big beast well. Hope that the bumper is repairable. @Jose Thomas late to sign in and sadly first to sign out. Thanks for the confirmation that you were picked up and rescued. Looking forward to seeing you all again soon. 5 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dinesh Kumar A Posted November 12, 2021 Report Share Posted November 12, 2021 Thoroughly enjoyed the drive today. It was thrilling to drive on the hard ridge of the dunes. On the descents with soft sand, felt what its like to surrender yourself to gravity. Amazing guidance by @Wrangeld - sure will make note and observe my descents. Thank you @Alex Raptor and @Jeepie for the support. Looking forward to the next drive. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muhammad Qasim Posted November 12, 2021 Report Share Posted November 12, 2021 I wonder if that black xtera which Brock down have managed to tow the car to the city? If you guys see this post please let us know if you were fine share your further experience. Feeling sorry for them but with great team they took them to the safe zone. 😊 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
