Due to limited participation, this drive has been merged with Richard's Fewbie drive. @MMansoor and @Nabeel Abdul Rahman you both have been added to @Wrangeld Fewbie drive at the same date, time, and location.

We will be exiting on E45 side, same side as starting point and not E15 (as we heard some bulldozer track new on Arada side). Tentative route plan - 150-200 km off-road driving.

No waitlist now Added you to the drive.

@PaoloMaraziti, @Ruan van den Heever, @JeromeFJ, @Arman, @Thomas Varghese, @Rawad, @Alain Canivet-Abikhalil, @Mus_hus78, @Ranjan Das, @varunmehndiratta, @Mario Cornejo, @Shaaz Sha Welcome to the Carnity Annual Liwa Expedition. Few key pointers (MUST READ) Every car should have 100 liters of fuel in the fuel tank or with additional jerry cans. If you show up at the meeting point and looking for a fuel station, that means you've missed the initial post to read and will also miss this drive, as we won't hold the convoy for 30-45 minutes. This is an Intermediate level drive so expect a fast-paced and action-oriented drive filled with adrenal pumping fun. So make sure everything in your car - boot and passenger seat is secured, fastened, or strapped. Get enough sleep in advance, to stay focused especially after 3-4 hours of drive. This is not Qudra, Bidayer or Faya, so respect nature and be super cautious at all times. Leave your ego at home, or you cannot enjoy LIWA. Lighter is better for IM fun. IM drives are best enjoyed alone, so you can climb and negotiate higher No risk of passenger sickness or busy schedule. No early exit for 1 car. So be yourself fully ready for an 8+ hour drive and also make sure your passenger (if you still bringing) understands that in this route there is no early exit. So 1 car, 1 driver, 1 passenger may cost the fun for the whole convoy if it's that serious. DRIVE PREPARATION To ensure that everyone has a fun and safe Liwa trip it's important that you go through the below checklist : 1. Please ensure that you are there at the meeting point at 7:30 AM sharp. Latecomers would be sent back. 2. Firstly, get lots and lots of rest the previous day. The more the better as Liwa will not only challenge your vehicle but your mind as well. We would need your complete focus and fatigue due to less rest is the last thing that is needed on such a terrain. For those who prefer camping the previous night, you can do so at the starting point as it's a nice spaced-out area. Bring some firewood in case if you wish to have a bonfire to keep you warm. Cleaning up after the bonfire is mandatory. 3. Ensure that your 4x4 is well serviced recently and all the lubes and fluids are topped up. 4. 20 Liter / 40-liter fuel jerry can is needed depending on your vehicle. If you have any doubts, please post your query on the drive post and we will assist. 5. A full fuel tank at the meeting point. 6. Spare tire should be in good working condition. If not been used recently, ensure that you take it out and check the condition properly. Also, ensure that you have the wrench that can be used to remove your tire (if needed). In the past, we have seen that people upgrade their tires but still keep the original wrench which is of no use to remove the upgraded tire. So please ensure that your car has the right tool to remove your car tires (if needed). 7. Bring along your breakfast, lunch, snacks, etc in easy-to-eat packing. We shall be having breaks in between the drive. 8. Dry food, energy bar, cookies, nuts, crisp to munch while driving. 9. Bring garbage bags along to carry your trash. Littering in the desert is strictly prohibited. Keep checking this list, as it might grow further in the coming days. All the above points are Mandatory and your participation on the drive would be refused on the drive day by the trip lead if you fail to comply with the above.

No need. Cars having 100+ liter fuel tank need not to carry additional fuel.

Finally the master video is released today. @Daniel Rodas @Werno @Javier Lucero @Zed @Alexander Alcala @Mario Cornejo @M.Seidam @Humayun Ghias @varunmehndiratta @Hisham Masaad @Anoop Nair @Niki @JamesThorn @Ruan van den Heever @Chaitanya D @Lorenzo Candelpergher @Jeepie @Kailas @JeromeFJ @Bernard Kalaani @Looper @Alexanderrr @Mus_hus78 @Daniel Yang @Wrangeld @GauravSoni @Matt.T @Warren Flay @Ale Vallecchi @Mohamad Anwer @Jorge Stepniak Felippe

While using 4X4 and playing on dunes fuel consumption on an average doubles up, but 159 liter seems plenty for your car. One more brownie point for FJC.
