Hi @Brette, the car needs to extend one more night in the spa and won’t be ready by tomorrow. As such, I have to unfortunately drop from tomorrow’s drive.

Good evening all,

Best part of today was meeting lots of new faces.

Drive was fun and full of lots of unexpected twists and turns. Looper I hope the bumper isn't too costly... 

Hope to see you all again in the next few weeks.

Jad what was the name of the app for the watch is it available on play store ?

Cheers all and have a great week ahead.

@Sunny84your dedication to the sport is unmatched at 13pm I was parked at enoc catching up on some work and who pulls up sunny in his car getting ready for the afternoon drive! Sunny I was in admiration of your dedication!!!! 

@Luke Johnson you was a silent ninja throughout mate litterally cruising effortlessly over the dunes no drama and full throttle well done ! 

@Anirudh Daymait was fun driving behind you whilst you was discovering the power of your beast of a LC, once you have Sussed it you will be unstoppable mate!

@Paul Zietsmanmate I have to saw your cruise liner was insane to watch and made me wonder what it would be like driving such a powerful massive engine around over the dunes. Two things were highlighted which were good reminders for me. 1 the power of a kinetic rope and how to use it and 2 the power of a young brain kudos to your son for suggesting the idea with the winch rope the little guy is the next Elon Musk in the making! Legend and thank him for getting my hat I was about to pass out I kid you not lol! 

@Jonny90it was good driving with you again matey honestly! I hope you get those lights sorted with those recommendations. I think jijoy is your man here see what he thinks. I also have another idea WhatsApp me and I'll let you know. Great driving today was fun watching you zip around! If you can and you see area 53 come up I think you would absolutely nail it!

@Jad Moussalli I'll be honest it was your car I was most looking forward to observing on the dunes. That car has the looks and the power it's an absolute unit of a car and you drove like a pro. You really got stuck in when we had the hitch with the car full hands on and 150% dedication (as with everyone else!) 

@Sita Sharmayou drove like a demon at the back and definatly outshone your husband :-) you did really well what I want to know is why I can't get my wife behind the wheel looper your a lucky man! Would be great for Sita to be marshalling one day and looper in CF or sweep! 

@Brettethanks for your feedback at the end it was golden, also thanks for giving me the opportunity to put my car and brains to use with the refusals much appreciated. Look forward to driving with you again real soon. 

Have a great weekend all and see you on the sand!
