@Islam Soliman Really looking forward to the drive tomorrow with you. 
 

1. I have a 2022 Jeep Rubicon Unlimited - grey colour  

2. I recently took a class with another off road club. I also did an intermediate level course with them. In total I have done 7 drives with the other club. But I haven’t been able to join any drives with them due to scheduling problems. The morning drives workout better for me. 

3. I did a GoCarnity Masterclass last February or the year before. But I I did so much drives as my car at the time kept losing its bumper! So I changed to a Jeep and looking forward to doing a lot more off road. 
 

4. My vehicle has front and rear tow hooks. 
 

5. I have a safety flag and programmable radio. 
 

6. I confirm I have watched the video and l have read the content. 

Thank you

Pranjal.

@Islam Soliman I will be bringing an Xterra 2010 Red, not my Infiniti.

 

It has all the prerequisites - tow hooks, clearance, flag, radio, shovel etc

 

Looking forward!

@Islam Solimangood evening. Also good evening everyone. First of all apologize for a late introduction. I was travelling and just arrived from Egypt this morning. My name is Frans Martono.

1. My vehicle is Toyota Land Cruiser LC71 with manual transmission year 2021 Silver Color.

2. I do have some offroad experience during working period in Saudi Arabia as a Heavy equipment technician in 2007-2010, however, that was without proper knowledge of offroading.

3. I never had any master classes yet.

4.My vehicle Toyota Hardtop has both towing points at front and rear, built in air compressor and i have additional 2 piston portable air compressor, towing rope and front winch.

5. I have made the flag bracket and installed 2 weeks ago. As well as the radio Baofeng programmed to 10 channels as per the guide.

6. I have seen all the recommended videos and postings to understand the rules and the techniques.

Since there is no Absolute newbie drive, I was recommended by the admin to go for the Newbie drive.

Hopefully this short description will be useful for everyone.

Looking forward to have my first drive with you all.

Thank you.
