@Wrangeld thanks for long awaited night drive. It's always fun n learning with you. Weather did the trick, for the drive and recoveries. Great help from @Alain Canivet-Abikhalil.

Night driving is bit different from day, though the basics remains the same, its implementation need to be more precise, as the view differs. 

We had shovelling,  popout and tugging. All together it was fun. 

Gravity is friend and foe if used correctly, unfortunately yesterday saw many fighting gravity. As newbie we were on small dunes,but can disastrous on larger dunes, so take a word of caution. Also Whenever you have refusal, dont accelerate more until your shows signs of movement ekse you will keep digging, always start with slow acceleration. Always follow the instructions, we dont want fun to be spoiled, over and above it is for safety. 

@Udit S @Waqar Sarwar @Joji varghese @george charbel @Rajiv Sam @eldose baby @Dinesh Kumar A @Farook Veettil @Savio Fernandes and @Quresh Pajero good to see you guys.

Hope everyone reached home safely, as it was quite foggy.
