Tbone aka Vinod Thank you for leading a good drive. 

Russ - you were wonderful as CF. 

Gerrit - Wonderful information on the camera and thanks for the inclined stuck 😉

We learned a lot on how to handle the situation thanks to the lead and Russ. 

Over all good experience.

What a fun packed drive that was! I think we ticked just about every box on what can happen on a drive!

A car with no power which had to be exited, tow rope fell off twice, then the tow rope snapped! We had several stucks, including a very tricky one where the expertise of @Tbone and @Russ came into play by anchoring the Gladiator due to the very awkward angle, and @Gerrit Bus slowly steering and using the gas to control the situation. Great learning experience for us all!

There we’re plenty more refusals, lots of shovelling, 2 lost flags and a pop out right at the end of the drive!

Some great teamwork over the morning!

Thanks all, and see you soon 🦖
