  1. Excellent drive! Pumped adrenalin in every second! Thanks to leads @Emmanuel @sertac and @Biju Abdul @Christian Andras for their good coordination. Special thanks to Dr. @Christian Andras for his help to overcome my heating issues... for the both heats; my car's and myself With only a few refusals and stucks, everybody enjoyed playing on high dunes in high tempo. The trouble of the day was Pajeros' I think. After the quit of @asifk, my transmission also heated in several times. I managed to cool it down in all but this problem dropped me from playing at the rest of the drive. I do not understand why this happened because the drive was fast and the weather was not that much horrible like in the summer. I think this is a problem specific to Pajeros and no issue for Wranglers, FJs and Xterras. Sometimes I am switching to manual mode-first gear to overcome challenging climbs since my auto-transmission is a bit slow and causes lose of momentum. Would it be a reason of transmission heat?
  2. The drive was excellent with high tempo and only a few stucks/refusals. Many thanks to @Ale Vallecchi for such a good route discovery, his technical instructions and great leading as always... Thanks to other leads @Kalahari @Nivin and @marks for their efforts in recoveries ensuring quick back to drive with full of joy. Also thanks to all other drivers for your good performances. See you on the next drive!
  3. indecision between doing side-sloping or crisscrossing; wrong speed and angle for the both anyway...
  4. This one was my second drive in Al Lisaili; the first was the worst to me with 3 hours in stuck under the sun of the hell; but this one is one of the best in high tempo and with excellent harmony among the drivers. Early stucks and refusals on the technical dunes made me a little bit concerned at the beginning, but later on we reached to a very good rhythm and played on the sand. I think everyone showed good performance today. Big thanks to @Wrangeld for ensuring such an enjoyable day for all participants; and @Jeepieand @Jeandre Bezuidenhout for their excellent management. My score also goes to @Lorenzo Candelpergher as the man of the day. He is much more free on the sand with his new tyres and quickly recovered many trouble today. Congrats you and your big but agile white dino!
  5. @Wrangeld thank you Richard for your new route discoveries Yes, that time we were stuck in the desert until the noon time. But I think the 'ignominious' part was terribly hot weather rather than the stuck itself. No one was able to work constantly to rid out under that monster sun. Anyway, it was a very instructive experience at the end... Fortunately, also the weather is going better in these days...
