@Emanuel @Shaun J do you have Instagram? I have a video of both that I want to upload. My ig account is sand_and_drift

I dont use IG, but tried to find your account to see it and sand_and_drift didnt show up. Perhaps thats user error 🤣

 

Thanks for the drive @DP1011 was a good morning in the desert. Thanks to everyone else for coming out! The Al Saad area had tracks, but was noticeably better than a few weeks back.

My speeding fines have come through now... how should i charge them to you @DP1011? I can whatsapp you my bank details 🤣
