Hi @manoj nair welcome to Carnity and it's off-road club. Being an absolute newbie it is advisable to join on absolute newbie drive first (which you have joined already). After your first absolute newbie drive you can join any newbie drives.

Seems like no cancellation so far.

Invincible 5 lane cutters in 1 sec to catch an exit - Biggest fear and threat to all road users. Tailgating you on slow lane when you are cruising on perfect speed limit - 80 on 80 road, 100 on 100 road. When you slow down to stop on orange light, but guy behind you want to play Need For Speed.

Pajero inherently uses 2WD means 100% power goes to rear wheel, while in 4H it shifts 30% in front wheel and 70% in rear wheel. In Gen4 its 33:67. This combo of 4H is very rare unlike other 4x4 - 50:50 or 40:60 split, and this makes 4H more desirable to use on wet road, slippery track, loose gravel and yet consume less fuel and allowing smoother steering than clak clak on u-turns.

This is really fun-tastic idea to explore the offroad tracks and cars from different angle and vantage point and make them look interesting and amazing even for ourself, let alone new eyes. I have had an experience in doing storyboard for corporate videos and happy to contribute here with the same and see how it unfold for this epic video and leaders challenge. Love the initiative, concept and can't wait to see the final output. Thanks @Lorenzo Candelpergher

Sri, please add Probir to the waitlist.
