@Peter Hager @Hafizah Okunnu @Mohamed Haris @Adam James @Shama Zamora @Alex Hollands @Bijan Aliakbari It was a pleasure to meet you all this morning and you all did amazingly well for first timers ! We had a minimum of refusals and stucks despite the quite challenging track. I had a very good time and I hope you all enjoyed your first drive in Carnity club. Moving forward you all will be joining the Newbie drives and not an Absolute Newbie drive. Drives are announced every Sunday at 11 am, and they go live on Sunday at 7:00 pm. Due to the high demand, these drives get full in about 10 minutes, so please be online at 7 pm to book your spot. If you miss a spot, put your name on the waitlist asap. Generally, by Thursday with dropouts everyone does get a spot if they have waitlisted. For the next drives, please bring along a deflator, pressure gauge, flag and radio as a minimum. Learn to deflate your tires and checking them precisely Learn to fix a flag on your car Learn to program and fully charge your radio Also you can join the Carnity Whatsapp Drive Notification to get the latest updates on the drives, so that you can RSVP on time for the next weekend's drive. Please have a look at below topic which describes the tools needed for every level. There is a separate tutorial inside which explains which radio we recommend and how to program them: (Please do not buy the Baofeng 888S spare radio we gave you, as these cannot be programmed without a special cable and software). Please have a look at below grading structure that explains various off-road levels: See you all soon again in the sand ....

@Jason Grima @SUNIL KUMAR @Savio Fernandes @Max Beloenko @Br. San @Yogesh Kumar It was a pleasure to meet you all yesterday. It was a bit of an eventful drive with a lot of refusals and stucks but it's during these kind of drives that you learn the most ! Especially learning to work as a team and trying to think of a way to get the cars out. I enjoy these kind of drives the most, except for the shoveling in the scorching heat of the Dubai summer .... You all did a very good job and I hope to see you all again in one of the next drives. Moving forward you all will be joining the Newbie drives and not an Absolute Newbie drive.

Hi Yogi In regards of the compressor, it depends what your budget is .... You can buy the Camel in dragon mart for about 250 dhs or the Mean Mother for 750 dhs in Ravonauto in Al Quoz. Adventure HQ and ACE have some other models too but I have no experience with these ones. You have also more expensive ones like the ARB compressor for 1200 dhs and more. I hope this helps a bit. See you tomorrow
