  2. A good learning on this drive was the use of the manual gears using the tiptronic system to gain power in steps and boost flagging momentum.. great tip @Srikumar

    Relayed by @Vanessa8580 who was guiding and pushing us on the long slope .

    And @Pancho would also advised who advised on gear sequences for gaining speed and then regaining power .

    Really enjoyable wonderful memory .

    It was a great drive .Several learnings and some amazing sights .Great guidance. New tricks learnt ..thanks leads center forwards and sweeps @Pancho thanks  for resuce tug from the sand puddle .

    Many thanks to @Srikumarand @Vanessa8580.

  5. @Pancho many thanks for a good lead on this drive .It was challenging  and good fun too unusual to see @DANIEL NOGUEIRA requiring two tows but luckily for me was showing the way and is full of confidence  .Aneesh , Jamie and @richard were great support with the refusals & recoveries  as allways .@ Richard's sense of humour on the radio communications is good  fun too. Look forward to the next drive with all the wonderful members of this great club.

  6.  Thanks for the drive @Frederic and support leaders .My learning from this drive has come at the cost of a broken bumper .When the convoy moved in the dark the car ahead moved away quicker than me .I tried to follow by sight as tracks were not visible so I ended up going over a ridge and hard fall .Luckily the jeep behind me saw this a veered left .I accept its my fault to drive by sight, I should have stopped and radioed for assistance to see the path. A suggestion for group in the dark is to move out slowly with cars following each others tracks to avoid what happened with me .Now for a police report , insurance claim and repairs .. is there any guidance for accidents in the desert to be reported to the police .Would appreciate.Thanks .
