Drive report It was a small but strong convoy that I had for my first Absolute Newbie lead .... @Snappy was my second lead and you could see that she has a lot of previous experience. She and her beautiful blue Wrangler did very well. For @Warren Flay, it was his first time in the sand and he needed a little time in the beginning to learn how to control his little golden Pajero on the side slopes but he got the hang of it pretty fast and did good for a first timer. Well done. @Ehunaiti and his red Wrangler were very synchronized and I didn't her him at all on the radio. I am sure he had a good time and he did very well. I was very impressed with @Kenneth Bollhardt's Prado, beautiful car with a nice set of tyres and a 2" lift and he knew what he was doing. Very well done. Also a big thanks to my hubby @Frederic, we don't drive together too often but we make a pretty good team ! 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 7:10 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 like I mentioned during the debriefing, 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: Pics can be found here : https://carnity.com/gallery/category/601-ab-newbie-qudra-dubai-12-mar-2021 See you soon in the sand again !

@Warren Flay @Ehunaiti @Snappy @Kenneth Bollhardt Below you can find the convoy numbering for tomorrow morning's drive Absolute Newbie Drive Al Qudra 12 March 2021 Attendees Level Car Pos # Vanessa8580 Marshal Mitsubishi Pajero LWB Blue 1 Snappy Absolute Newbie Jeep Wrangler JK Blue 2017 2 Warren Flay Absolute Newbie Mitsubishi Pajero SWB Gold 2016 3 Ehunaiti Absolute Newbie Jeep Wrangler 2020 4 Kenneth Bollhardt Absolute Newbie Toyota Prado white 2020 5 Frederic Crew Mitsubishi Pajero SWB Blue 6 We will be using radio channel 1 (446.00625), if you don't have a radio yet I can give you a spare one. The plan is to drive about 3 hours and practice dune driving, throttle control, basic sidesloping, and just getting you comfortable for your first time on the sand. We usually finish our drive at the Last Exit petrol station so we can inflate the tyres. Unfortunately the compressor from the petrol station have been out of service lately, so if you have a compressor to inflate your tyres after the drive please bring it along. Alternatively you can drive on the road to the next ENOC that's about 10mins drive away but you'd need to drive slowly and avoid sharp turns. (tyre pressure will be low). Please abide by our COVID10 regulations that we specify in the drive topic. As soon as you are deflated please wait inside the car where we will do the briefing over the radio. Keep social distance at all times and wear a mask whenever you are out of the car. I hope to see you all tomorrow morning at 6.30 am. Vanessa

@amir amiri Because you already did your absolute newbie, I request you sign in for a newbie drive instead. I will remove your name for this drive.

Welcome to Carnity @Snappy. I will add you to the drive, I don't see your name in there yet .... Looking forward to see you tomorrow

Good morning @Imtiyaz Ali A warm welcome to our Offroad Club Community ! As part of your introduction, please reply with the following info: 1) Which 4x4 are you bringing ? 2) Any prior off-roading experience, if so when and what ? 3) Does your vehicle have front and rear Towpoints ? And are they in perfect condition @Warren Flay @Kenneth Bollhardt and @Ehunaiti Please take your time to have a look at our Absolute Newbie briefing video: MUST WATCH: NEWBIE VIDEO BRIEFING For your first drive with us, the only must-have items is a pressure gauge and tyre deflator so you can deflate your tyres upon arrival. If you have more items such as as radio, flag, shovel and others please do bring them along as well.

DRIVE REPORT It was very hot Friday afternoon and I think we all felt it on our cars, we had to push a little bit harder because the sand was soft and on top of that, there was a huge sandstorm for about an hour and then everything calmed down again. I did the track from Murquab to Solar so many times but I get still surprised with these tricky pockets when you come over a dune. I got myself wedges between two dunes and we all had to get our heads together for the best and safest way to get my car out of there. I was very happy to see the team spirit of everyone and the help with shoveling, tugging, winching and cheering. We got my car out quite quickly. We had many more stucks and refusals after that and the weather really didn't help but it was good that everyone stayed very calm and everybody did their best to help wherever they could. Maybe it was one of my toughest drives so far but I had an amazing time. I was very happy to have such a wonderful convoy with the best people ! @Arshad Roojee, @Salty3Arab, @Taufique Surve, @Gautamaialni, @Salvador Perez, @Fabien Monleau, @Azfar Aboobakar, @Sven, @N@ved, @Jeepie You all did an amazing job and I hope to see you all soon again in the sand ....

Of course you can share it 😉

@Paras Ali if you are new to the club, you will have to join an Absolute newbie drive first. There is still a spot available tomorrow morning or you can join the one next Friday. I removed your name from this drive.

Sure ! Always welcome ....
