Popular Post Vaibhav Posted September 25, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted September 25, 2022 What a way to complete my 50th drive with Carnity under lead of @Srikumar.With initial hiccup of Fog where we had to delay the drive and @Gaurav Sonihaving issue with his car which I hope is not too serious .Like I mentioned previously having 2 legends of Carnity in the drive would definitely be really fun. Though the drive was delayed we did share some funny moments and knowledge. The convoy drove amazingly. @Frederic your presence as 2nd lead made the convoy stronger and gave some motivation for Sri to push. @Amr Aydindrove really well being your first intermediate drive. Pajero Boys @Alexanderrrand @Simon Dawood pushed their cars really well and kept the momentum, @Zed It was good to see you in the LC without the rear bumper ☺️ and thank you for pushing. Prado Boys @ASAD.and @Waqas ParvezThank you for churning the sand for me. @Anoop Nair Good job with the Jeep with missing fender. Hope you get the beautiful jeep is back at its original beauty. @DP1011 , Deepak wranglerExcellent driving buddy. enjoy you break. @Tom B I could see the smile at the end of the drive you thoroughly enjoyed the drive. @Looperthanks for taking care at the back as a sweep. Hope to see everyone in the sand soon. 9 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom B Posted September 25, 2022 Share Posted September 25, 2022 Brilliant drive this morning @Srikumar. The last hour and half was absolutely superb. The regular radio messages shouting "floor it" "floor it" gives an indication of how much we were pushing. I really enjoy this area and it well worth the drive. @Frederic great job as 2L. As @Vaibhav says, having you as 2L no doubt gave @Srikumar that added confidence to push the convoy. @Looper great support at the back. And to everyone else, well driven! No doubt see you all soon. 7 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Zed Posted September 25, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted September 25, 2022 (edited) i have 2 statements to make: 1. The drive was excellent today, there were no deadly steps to avoid, so I didn't lose anything today and my front bumper was intact 😁 Well done Marshal @Srikumar 🫡 (salute emoji) 2. For some good reason, instead of popping-out, my BeadGrip wheels and wide tires tend to "lose air" when badly impacted from the sidewalls, resulting in 6psi and needed some air for driving safely. If it was not for @Vaibhav's on-board compressor, the drive would be further delayed as I have to take out my bulky compressor, attach wires, etc. Thanks bro 👍🏻 These statements are made from my own accord, without any coercion or endorsement from anyone 😂 Too bad I didn't have to tug anyone with the LC, but that's also a testament of how good everyone drives in the convoy today 👍🏻 well done everyone 👏🏻 Mr @Waqas Parvez i hope you made it on time and didn't start a World War 3 🙏🏻 Edited September 25, 2022 by Zed 6 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Srikumar Posted September 25, 2022 Author Popular Post Share Posted September 25, 2022 Thank you everyone for a smashing morning. @Frederic @GauravSoni @Amr Aydin @Alexanderrr @Simon Dawood @Zed @Waqas Parvez @ASAD. @Vaibhav@DP1011 , Deepak wrangler @Anoop Nair @Tom B @Looper The heavy fog gave us all the rare moment where we could spend sometime having a few good laughs and chats, getting to know each other a little better. After loosing almost 2 hours of the planned drive time when the sun came out, it was in it's full glory creating TBH a pretty unbearable weather. However, with us able to start the drive it was just a little bump on what otherwise was a perfect day. As we were approaching Old Lady Dune to take in her blessing @GauravSoni messaged on the radio that his car was having issues. Since we were starting the drive already pretty late it was decided that's it would be best for him to exit out. Hope the issue is a minor one and that things are fixed pretty soon.. After Gaurav's exit we headed East closer to Al Ain airport where we were treated to 2 absolutely beautiful bowls. If the weather was not hot enough you could feel the added heat of each driver trying to climb higher and faster than the previous. 😂 What followed after was probably the best session of fast paced offroading I have been a part off. The criss crossings, sharp ridges, rolling dunes along with a fantastic bunch of drivers gave me the freedom to really push the limit. With the weather getting increasingly hot and since we had already offshot our planned exit time, it was decided to head to the tarmac. Thank you @Looper for taking care of the sweep duties, with so many heavy bulldozers in the convoys I am sure there would have been no tracks remaining. But it was very reassuring to know that you were at the back of a very long convoy. Finally to my very close buddy @Frederic thank you for joining this drive. It has been way too long since we have driven together on an IM drive. The moment you mentioned last Sunday that you were going to join, I was doubly excited for today's drive. We were only missing our 3rd musketeer @Gaurav, hopefully we can have another drive soon with all of us in it. Thank you Sweihan boys once again. Take care. 6 2 2 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
