Thankyou so for being on time. I had a great time tearing through khatim in the darkness.. I feel like we looped around and got nearly every ridge frommboth sides and both directions..

The pace was fast all night 💪💪

We had a little bother with crosstracks and some vegetation towards the end whilst exploring the south east of khatim, but eventually found a couple of big dunes to play on just before exiting.

Congrats on completing your first FB+ in the dark @Myrko. 

Great driving from everyone, we had a nice great flowing convoy and covered a heap of ground. @Sam Selim @ChrisW and @GauravSoni thanks for taking on drive duties and helping us move smoothly.

@Nizar Shawwa @Diego @Jose Luis Campos great fun to drive you guys tonight as always.

Enjoy the coming weekend!
