That's why it's Tiptronics in AT for me..😄😄.. remember my first drive with @Wrangeld and message was loud n clear "D" it is.... So stick to master's words except ofcourse when climbing hills ...

Hi @Hisham Masaadawesome ...plz keep one for me I am sure we will catch up soon on one of the drives ..🙂 thanks for the same had no clue where to find one...🙂

Thanks @Luca Palanca Falsini for an exciting drive to start the day...it was good fun and experience surely added to confidence. Shuwaib and Luca are undoubtedly the best combo for some adrenaline rush.🙂.perhaps we could hv been a bit faster but then it was my first extreme drive so I am not the right person to judge . Thanks @Francois Germishuys for feedback...it's not easy to call a spade A Spade ..that's the only way we learn. Highly appreciate your feedback. At this level we need to be prepared to plan for driver ahead of us and assess accordingly - basics of convoy concept took a bit back step due to same reason @Abu Muhammad mentioned - conscious effort to maintain speed and at times i ended up too close to vehicle that wasn't having it's best day on field. Learning continues. Also must add that as we proceeded, @Thomas Varghese was able to recover well from initial hour of hiccups, takes a lot.of courage to do that, his smooth way of handling tech areas is something to enjoy- skill of the driver over the strength of the vehicle ..kudos to @Thomas Varghese for that. Thanks to the whole team for the lovely drive. @Ilya thanks for tips it's always fun discussing possibilities on Jeep with you.. Hope to see you all soon....

Ciao @Lorenzo Candelpergher yup this time it's Xtreme with rockstar @Luca Palanca Falsini .. see you soon, hopefully on the next midweek drive.

That would be great if possible...i would know by Friday Eve, if can wait, will apprise you as soon as I have confirmation.. Don't want that team loses an available slot.

Hi @Ale Vallecchi seems will have to be at work Saturday morning, not sure about my attendance..don't want to keep it waiting till late, so will step out. Thanks hope to see you soon.

Seems won't be able to make it by 630pm... perhaps next time. Have fun.

RED, RED, RED.....not White plz...summer afternoon drive and white don't add ..🙂

Best wishes....he is actually already at intermediate level....🙂🙂👍

Hi Ale based on your above comment I added myself to the drive...this is my second drive so in case will have waiting list, will be happy to drop out.

It's the leader not where he leads that makes the diff...🙂

Hi @Frederic i have a Nikon D 5100 with couple of basic lenses - one wide angle and one telescopic (i believe 50-200mm).

Sorry @Chaitanya D will exit the drive didn't realize this is Tomo...my car is going for servicing and will get it back at 6pm so won't be able to make it in time.

Thanks @Kailas for the wonderful drive today through a highly diverse Terrain full of high slopes, bumpy vegetation, long range dunes, super soft sand, technical areas concocted together through series of beautiful wide spread sabkhas. We couldn't breach the 100km mark, however reached the planned destination covering around 75Km at a decent moving speed of around 26Kmph (with multiple tech areas that we covered, not a bad speed for a long convoy). We had our share of pop out(s) (two at once), a complicated stuck and other minor refusals n ofcourse my friendship with Crest. Thanks to an experienced convoy we could really hit the pedal hard and managed the terrain pretty well. Personally, i was trying with PSI levels reduced by couple of points and with a bit lower revs then my usual, worked at most places apart from that small crest (thanks for highlighting that perhaps it's more than level of momentum it's the the fact that i am letting it go fraction of secs early, it's a continuous learning process and will continue to work).. All and all a lovely drive and surely worthy of that super early morning (or actually late night) alarm.. Thanks all hope to catch up with you all soon.

As i said good idea ..how practical it is to arrange specifically is something team can advice. I have been on some drives with low number of drivers, where we did quite a bit of trials n experiments.....one of the drives with Chaitnya, we deliberately got the cars stuck and in one of the drives with Ale, drivers individually tried some obstacles repeatedly. Things related to vehicle - lowering down PSI on a specific drive or deciding that on specific day i want to go up on Superbowl or up faya with different approach is something I believe marshals always support if volunteered (just we ourselves need to be prepared that we might not do it properly) ...plus we can ourselves always plan few drives out of general drives to experiment.. Of course j am in for any such drives ..

Nice idea....i usually experiment with these elements when by joining a Fewbie or Newbie drive...

Wow never knew this exists....great find @Shehab Alawadhi

Sure dear thanks...,👍

Hi @Kailas RSVP was open when I joined and slot was available...not sure yesterday or day before...since the slot was available I left the other drive with Fredric to join this one...let me know and will plan acc. It's my only drive for the week..

Hi @Ale Vallecchi won't be able to make it for drive. I have exited, I believe there are quite a few on waiting list. Looking forward to see you soon.

Noted @Lorenzo Candelpergher... Thanks for the feedback .. see you in the next drive..

Congrats @Anish S

Fingers are already warming up for rsvp to open...was from scenic perspective the best drive of last 6 months, looking forward..🙂

Hi @Lorenzo Candelpergher have done the requisite number of intermediate drives...let me know if I qualify for the same. Would be glad to part of this action packed drive if you find it fine. Cheers

Sure Richard...I requested very late as well...thanks n have a fun drive .see you soon.
