  3. Unfortunately 2 challenges there.. forecast of the storm is to last until Sunday afternoon and …… I am flying on Saturday evening 😂
  4. Dear all, we have been monitoring the weather condition developments and based on different sources the storm is expected to hit over the weekend with peak starting Fri evening till Saturday evening. As safety of everyone is a key priority I have no option but to make the unfortunate decision of calling this drive off. Apologize for the inconvenience and looking forward for driving with you all soon. Stay Safe!
  5. Hi @Nathan, better to wait close to the date and decide based on development of weather situation. It’s fun to drive on wet sand post rain as long as appropriate skills are applied however it’s not going to be fun to do the same while it’s raining heavily. keep an eye on this space for update on Friday.
  6. Hi @Wilfredo Perez I had to remove your RSVP as you joined under “manage” which is only for support team and above. Pls RSVP under join which will add you to WL now as drive is no full. It depends

  8. Hi @throttlejockey.. adding to what @Frederic said above the fist advise is not to spend any money on the car as of now.. what you have now in its stock state and with the appropriate training and mentorship can take you to the desert almost any where and gradually focus on the things that matter to put your money on starting with a nice shave to the bumpers to improve the approach and departure angles and next would be all terrain tires (when yours are due for replacement). in the time being, all what you need is a safety flag, a radio, and compressor and you are all set to to join us on your first drive.
  9. Apologize @JeromeFJ and everyone but just woke up now and won’t make it on time. Seems like I set the alarm for Sun instead of Sat by mistake.. have a great drive and sorry for this mishap!
  10. Thanks all for joining the drive today and making it a fun one and thanks for all the support @Imteeaz. Well done and congratulations @Julien Recan and @Marek_was003 for your first second lead and sweep which you both handled very well. Thanks @Mohammad Sayawoush Azad for the help with the stressed baby gazelle.. hopefully reunited with the mom and rest of the herd. for those who had popouts today, pls make sure to visit your tire shop as soon as possible to clean the tire and do the needful balancing. looking forward for driving with all of you soon again
