  1. I would not go for beadgrip, this is not necessary in my opinion. What you need is a good all terrain tyre with decent high profile, and 17" rims. You'll see most people in the club with this combo and it works great. 265/65/17 Yokohama Geolandar tyres will be around 450-500 AED each from what i recollect. Good Luck !
  2. May the sun in your life never set May it always rise high and above With a convoy as great as we had yesterday, we probably could keep driving all night till early morning. We set off from the Faqa sabkha after a short briefing and headed off into the typical Faqa terrain. The lonely trees, shrubs, and other vegetation is hugged by glorious dunes, tall or small. For some of you this was probably your first FB level drive, and even better the first one that's partially in the dark. As you noticed, once it gets dark, the senses work totally differently, and you have to be much more aware of every obstacle on your path. With the brilliant help of @munkybiznessand @Simon Dawoodwe were invincible and carved our way through sometimes very tight patches. All of you drove really well ! @Tom V your second lead was fantastic, shame about the shredded tyre on the way out, but alas i guess this was the desert trying to keep us @Sayed Bilal @Yaseen87@premindra rajaram@Feras_Sh@Harshal looking for more adventures with you all ! You guys drove great ! We covered some good distance, but honestly i cared much more for the break times in-between where we could enjoy the fantastic scenery and have a chat with each other. Coming out of Covid and finally being able to socialize again is so precious. To all my Hindu, Sikh, or Jain friends, i wish you all a Happy Diwali 2022 ! See you all soon in the sands again !
  3. Only part of the total weight will be resting on the board. We never tried helicopters though 😅
