Looper Posted August 18, 2023 Author Report Share Posted August 18, 2023 @Stumpy Paj, @Jaro Tuzinsky, @Mark D, @Mark B, @Amir Amiri, @Joseph Raju, @Bravoecho, @Mohit Gurnani, @Gary F, @Pieter Pot Thank you all for joining the drive. I will be posting the convoy order later in the day. Request you not to be a No-Show and instead rest well and arrive on time. In case you think there are going to be any issues withdraw from the drive. Meanwhile do check the health of your vehicle as it will be quite hot very soon, exceeding 40 degrees by the time we end the drive. This drive will be slightly different than the previous FB+ that I started here. Instead of going straight ahead & parallel to the solar park installation we will head southwest to the long-range dunes. Our objective will be to avoid technical patches on the way as much as possible and reach as quickly as possible to Little Sweihan. We will exit at the Innovation Center at or about 9:30. You may expect a slight delay. 2 2 don't drive like its your last one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
