Pre-drive details below: 1- Please be on time and bring all your passion for off-roading and pull as much as you can of yourself out of bed.. trust me you will need all of it. 2- Be at the meeting point by 7:00am (or before) and be ready to move max by 7:20am (deflated, flag erected, 4H on, radio on and set, airbags/traction/abs all set....) 3- Please ensure your programable radio is on, fully charged and set to Channel 1 (446,006) 4- Briefing will be done on on the sand or radio depending on the wind 5- We expect fast wind and unpredictable changing dunes so please be prepared for a demanding drive which you will require your undivided attention. Bringing passengers is ok provided they will not be a cause for distraction and don't have known motion sickness or fear of heights. 6- Please ensure everything in the car is tied down and no moving objects 7- Please check all oils, tow hooks, and ensure no hanging parts below the chassis. 8- please ensure you come with a full tank (as much as possible) in addition to all necessary gear for this drive level specially your safety flag and radio (NO FLAG or RADIO = NO DRIVE) 9- Meeting Point: https://maps.google.com?q=24.8053360,55.2655880&hl=en-AE&gl=ae&entry=gps&lucs=s2se,a1 10- Convoy order

I am very sorry @Mo. it won't be fair to do so as you were no 8 on the WL...looking forward to have the chance to drive with you and all the other on the WL that we weren't able to accommodate on this one.

Both you @Emanueland @Joao are confirmed

Hi @Beide Worku, you are already on the confirmed list 👇

Thanks @Mo.unfortunately odds are not high unless a big surprise on dropouts happen.. I will wait until late afternoon before closing the convoy so let’s see how things develop.. stay tuned and never lose hope 🥸

Dear @Yasirimam @Jona @Gerrit Bus @Rasif ABDUL RAHIM @Azeem M @Shahzad Akbani @Desert Wrangler @Faiz Amir @Adam James @Beide Worku @Juan Carlos Prego Perez @Eli Zandro Hamoy Thanks a lot for RSVPing to this drive. I am about to finalize the convoy final structure and trying my best to accommodate as much as possible from the very long waitlist we have and give everyone a fair chance while also ensuring a smooth, safe, and enjoyable drive to everyone joining. Hence it's very important to ensure that you all make advise asap if there is any change in your plans for tomorrow morning so I can allow our friends on WL1 then WL2 into the drive. WL1: as you have no other drives for this weekend, you have the highest priority to jump to any open seat or if we decided to stretch the convoy with 1 or 2 more. So please let me know if these is any change in your plan. 1.@Emanuel 2. @Joao 3. @Sharat Nambiar 4.@Farook Veettil 5. @Dr Tanveer Ahmed 6. @Alex Hollands WL2: You already have a 1st drive for the weekend so unfortunately priority is given to WL1. Thanks for your interest in driving with me and I can't wait to have the opportunity to drive with you soon. 7.@Quresh Motiwala 8. @Mo. 9.@Tareq Al Turq 10.@Salvador Perez 11.@Sreenath Giridharan

Congrats @Naim Aoun on the promotion.. as we stand the drive is full and you are second on WL after @Davie Chase. Tomorrow will finalize the convoy list and a big chance that I will extend the convoy to include both of you.

Hi @Naim Aoun.. as this is a fewbie plus drive I will have to remove your RSVP as you are still showing as fewbie.. looking forward for having the opportunity to drive together soon

Thanks @Junaid120120 for your interest to join.. however you RSVPed under manage tab so unfortunately I will have to remove your RSVP. Pls feel free to reRSVP as going instead There is one way to know 😂

I am very sorry to hear about the incident @PaoloMaraziti.. thanks to Allah that you and everyone involved are safe and hats off to everyone who supported this extreme recovery and getting everyone safely out. No doubt these are very stressful situations and leaves marks in everyone’s mind and soul specially those who witnessed it first hand, not speaking of those who were at the center like yourself. I enjoyed driving with you and wish to drive more with you hoping you would reconsider your decision. Finally, these incidents are part of the inherent risks we all sign up for and accept when we go for an extreme sport like offroading. Let’s please use the analysis to learn and be better off-roaders but avoid blaming and pointing fingers at anyone; this will bring no value to anyone.

Congratulations @M.Seidam👏👏👏

Congratulations @Hisham Masaad 🎉🎉🎉

Have fun guys and gals.. you can’t imagine how tough it is to watch this amazing coordination and spirit from distance .. wish everyone safety and a day full of fun and great memories to hold forever. Hopefully next time I will be around with you all.. Play safe and enjoy!

Well deserved.. congratulations @JeromeFJ
