Gaurav Posted February 13, 2022 Report Share Posted February 13, 2022 Let's aim to cross the "unprecedented" Liwa Crescent from one side to another. To experience the magic of Rub’ al Khali (Empty Quarter) the largest uninterrupted desert on Earth! The Liwa Crossing through Empty Quarter offers a chance to witness nature in its purest form and in itself is a transcendent experience. However, traveling through the largest desert in the world is not something that should be taken lightly. It will be a 150 - 200 km off-road drive covered within 1.5 days through amazing breathtaking views and the enormous size of dunes on earth. What you will find here: Tallest sand dunes (200 - 300 meters) Steepest incline and drops Longest side sloping Broad ridge riding Faster heartbeat Sweaty hands Mandatory rules for Liwa Crossing (exceptional) drive. Considering its seriousness to keep you and your vehicle safe, these strict rules will be applied to all. For Fewbie level you must have driven at least 5 Fewbie drives with carnity in the last 3 months. If you are newly promoted (1-2 drives), then select one level lower drive than your current off-road rank. If you were away on a long break (more than 2 months), then select one level lower drive than your current off-road rank. It is highly recommended to drive alone, as it's a very serious and demanding drive to stay focused at all times. Maximum of one passenger allowed - No exceptions and trip lead will send you back. Make sure that passenger has no fear of heights, motion sickness and have been to full-day off-road drives before. As once we enter the desert, the only way out is from the other side, without any early exits for 100-150 kms. Everything in your car should be strapped and secured - All vehicles will be checked by the trip lead. Convoy size - strict adherence Fewbie: 10 Cars + 1 Lead + 2 Support = 13 Cars in total Fewbie Plus: 10 Cars + 1 Lead + 2 Support = 13 Cars in total Intermediate: 10 Cars + 1 Lead = 11 Cars in total Drive Preparation: Your car should be in 100% pristine working condition, so double or triple check everything. Full-size spare tire with a lug wrench to match your wheel nut size and its depth. For aftermarket rims - Your lug wrench also needs to match the wheel nut depth. As it's a long full-day drive, so catch up with enough sleep in advance. 5-10 liter of water per person. Snacks for breakfast, lunch, dinner and next day breakfast. Keep your car as light as possible by packing what is truly essential. Fully charged radio with spare battery and all other required off-road gears.

Waqas Parvez Posted February 14, 2022 Report Share Posted February 14, 2022 (edited) Mission accomplished , I was worried for a few seconds when the website went down, so I'm intending to camp the night before the drive; if anyone else is preparing, perhaps we can coordinate or form a WhatsApp group my number is 0503545183.

Gaurav Posted February 14, 2022 Author Report Share Posted February 14, 2022 @KAMALIO I have removed your RSVP as you were not eligible for this drive as you have only done 1 FB+ drive so far. Quote @Fabien Monleau you have been added to the drive, please confirm. @Hasan Wahlan I added Fabien as he waitlisted in drive post at 7:03 PM and you've hit the waitlist at 7:08 PM, now you are first in waitlist and will be automatically added if anyone drops out. 1 1 Let's root for each other & watch each other grow.
