  2. Extreme Desert Drive

    Extreme Desert Drive is an extension of an Intermediate drive but at a lot faster pace with a continuous drive-time on big rolling and difficult dunes. The difficulty level of climbs, ridge riding, criss-crossing will be more or less the same as the Intermediate level, but doing that over and over again at high speed requires special attention to be courageous but with extreme caution.

    If you and your vehicle are perfectly in-sync with the Intermediate level without repetitive stuck, refusals, or losing track, then only you should consider joining this fast-paced extreme drive. This drive offers the maximum adrenaline among all the types of drives and also demands a very experienced and sensible driver with a fully protected 4x4 vehicle.

    In such extreme fast pace drive, it is highly recommended to drive alone without any passengers to avoid any distractions.

    Who can join: Selected - Intermediate and above

    • With a minimum of 5 Intermediate drive experience.
    • The final selection will be based on Crew and Marshals feedback.

    Disclaimer: The chance of damaging your vehicle is quite high in such fast-paced extreme drives, so please join at your own discretion.

  3. Thank you Everybody for the magnificent drive!

    Today's challenge was reaching Faya from  BigRed!

    Everyone was great during the drive in approaching the multiple challenges we encountered on our way :).

    Reaching the top of Big Red was important to me because just after the sunrise the panorama is wonderful! 

    We did everything that was planned from going on top of Big Red to climb on the big dunes in our path, till the top of Faya!

    Special mention to @Miamimoe our Second Lead, was a very nice meeting. You hope you enjoyed the drive with your incredible car (still not convinced about front side flags :) ). 

    @Shehab Alawadhi Alawadhi you were perfect in your role! Hope to see you soon again 

    @Frederic I was very happy having you with us and looking at you with a smiley face hope you enjoyed!

    @Federico De Chirico I was impressed with your driving style is the first time that I saw a Pajero LWB climbing on top of Faya very good!

    @Federico Galbieri I Hope that you can find a way to fix your power loss issue on your car and see you expressing your potential

     

    See you all of you on the sand soon!!!!

  5. Thanks to everybody for your enthusiasm regarding yesterday's drive!

    The path between Faqa and Bab al Shams is always gifting us with wonderful places, Gazelles and Oryx. Yesterday was not an exception!

    Even with some refusals, stuck and a forced exit due to a tire leaking, we covered almost 60 Km! 

    Thank you @Shaaz Sha for your sweep! Was not an easy job!

    @Gaurav Soni @Junaid120120, @Ashok chaturvedi your enthusiasm and willingness to help is remarkable, hope to see you soon on the sand then.

    @Tero Vallas was a pleasure meeting you again and seeing that you enjoyed the drive with us.

    @Jack Thomas don’t worry about the problems that you encountered, you just need a little time to be comfortable with your car. it’s not easy to handle an F150 on this kind of terrain! So keep going with us and keep learning! Just, for the future,  keep in mind that not all the Marshals will accept you if you don’t make a reservation in advance.

    @Shaaz Sha and @Tero Vallas your photos are amazing!

    Hope to see you all on the sand soon and share new amazing experience on the desert!
