Thank you all for signing up !

Some pointers to prepare:

1. Please arrive 15mins earlier so you have time to deflate your tires. If you need help, please do not hesitate to approach any of us.

2. If you have a radio, great. If not, we can lend you one for your first drive only. We will be using Channel 2: 446.031Mhz

3. Please try to get an off-road flag mounted on your car for the drive. This is for everyone's safety.

4. If this is your first drive, please watch the Newbie briefing video (you can skip the covid part)  

Hope to see you all tomorrow bright and early !
