Shamil is no longer here with us. This testing centre seems like ras al khor Tamam. Tamam Vehicles Testing and Registration Centre - مركز تمام لفحص وتسجيل السيارات 04 706 9901 https://maps.app.goo.gl/eAAxxA8nAqxCyzSv5

Yes, Jerry, something like this but will post a detailed plan tomorrow with a lot of other details. We plan to have an exit every hour from 6 PM, 7 PM, 8 PM and 9 PM so that if anyone needs to leave early, then trip lead will take them out through the path of least dunes (2kms) till it connects to flat track, where everyone can switch on google maps and head out.

Welcome to Carnity of-road club. And congrats on the new Ram Rebel, indeed a very capable pickup truck and a good choice you've made. Please make sure that your Ram has a minimum of 8 inches of ground clearance along with front and rear tow point or tow hooks, as few Ram with sport bumper lacks both of the above mandatory requirements. From off-road gear requirements, you need to have a tire pressure gauge, deflator and compressor as a minimum. For your first drive walkie talkie (radio) will be provided to you by trip lead. From the second drive onward you will need all off-road gears mentioned as per offroad structure at different ranks. Hi Qaiser, welcome to Carnity off-road club and you are at the right place at the right time. Please go through the above drive post and read and watch all embedded links without distractions to be ready for your first off-road drive with us,

You are most welcome to join with or without BBQ. Doing BBQ is not must for anyone.

Was it a case of too fast, too furious - overshot the dune, or you lost track and took some extreme rider track?

Thanks Richard for sharing Becky's amazing photography. She definitely deserve lot of applause being the youngest photographer among all. Well done Becky, keep it up.

Sorry bro, I cant edit the poll, but will rem to put you in FB convoy.

I love your patience and sensible approach in analyzing things into right perspective and set your limits and goals. Congrats for SC and its wise to stick to Stage 1 to maximize engine usable life of 99 model, unless you rebuilt whole engine and upgraded internals too. Btw, ref to self recovering issue per last drive, I noticed you made a choice of Michelin which is good tire for road and sand as they are super light but they aren't good for self-recovery. If you really wish to have good self recovery capabilities then AT tires goes much before the diff-lock choice.

WOW, very nice skill development theme @Wrangeld Looks like you are prepping them for serious, prestigious, one and only upcoming challenges quietly.

Wow, that sounds scary, good you and wrangler are fine. How did it happen?

Read your owners manual for the same instructions advised above. With continuous LO gear use your transfer case and/or transmission may last for 3-6 months.

To be more specific, unless you plan to do intentional jumps and hard landing you really don't need such level of reinforcements. Garages love to sell stuff with fear or for right kind of dakar rally racers.

We will have multiple convoy starting from different points. I will add you to the convoy whose starting and end points are same so that your friend can leave their car at starting point.

First and the foremost credit of such remarkable drive goes to lead careful planning, understanding the convoy, and positioning them in the perfect order - which often goes unnoticed. So well done Angela, keep it up. And then second credit goes to each capable driver and teamwork roped with faith, respect and knowledge to trust each other as a good team player. Se well done to all great drivers and support members. Angela, congrats on the first nose dive, as every lead need few story with their scars to share the action.

Congratulations @M.Seidam @Hisham Masaad and @Shaz Shah for successfully completing the first session of leaders lead with flying colors. As you all have learned the basics first and demonstrated a perfect way to lead an independent drive in the desert, now it's your chance to work on the routing and planning skills. You will be learning the basics of leading the convoy in the desert in three different steps: Advance sand reading, plan your lead, plan your exits. Use of navigational software for selecting the right course of path. How to systematically scale the lead for all the cars in the convoy. In this second session of leaders lead you will be leading with the help of off-road navigation app or device. You can choose any device or app (motionx, gaia, mytrail etc) and mark these basic points and you will be required to reach any one or few of them: Entry and Exit Solar Park Al Qudra Desert Opp Bab Al Shams Mark long range playable dunes Mark pylon tracks, cycle tracks Mark as many sabka, flat track or easy exits in case of emergency Mark fencing or restricted area Mark technical dunes P.S. I will personally check each of your device to verify and help you further.
