Hi @Gaurav, thanks for an excellent drive this morning. As I mentioned, I certainly received a lot of practice on those ridges today.  See you soon. Emanuel

[Davie Chase]

@Gaurav thanks for the great drive as usual, great lines and route, hopefully one day I will get there and produce such fluent drives. Very few refusals which made it fast flowing and very little stop time.

this is of course testament to the convoy @Alphin Aloor @Arun Menon @Emanuel @Glenn W  @Imteeaz and the way you all drove, fantastic drive by you all.

great second lead by Alphin who smoothed the lines and followed instructions flawlessly well done. 
 

@Imteeaz nothing needs to be said mate, brilliant support as usual, always a pleasure to drive with you.

have a great rest of you weekend and see you in the sand again soon

[Imteeaz]

@Gaurav I echo the statement from @Davie Chase such a smooth drive with the right amount of adrenaline rush everytime i get dirty on the sand. Thank you mate.

@Alphin Aloor @Arun Menon @Emanuel @Glenn W  it was a pleasure to see some new faces for this drive. You all drove well and were up to challenge.

until nxt time, enjoy ur week

Thanks @Davie Chase and @Imteeaz for your kind words, but the whole credit goes to the amazing convoy that made the whole morning beautiful in Lisaili dunes.

Everyone drove amazing and big kudos to @Arun Menon for the first FB drive, he managed very well, even in a little tricky situations.
