  2. @Lorenzo Candelpergherhi! Given this new information I am not sure if I can join the drive! I will remove myself and hope to catchup soon. M sure the convoy will have a lot of fun given the location and your drive description!!!
  3. Hi @Lorenzo Candelpergher my car is in workshop… AC stopped working! Let’s hope they can fix it by tomorrow evening. My PCR is done! Will keep you updated
  4. Brilliant @MUHAMMAD Kashif RAZZAQ!!! Well done and well deserved!!! Hope you catchup Soon on the sand!!
  5. Hi @Ale Vallecchi is there a possibility of add another driver on the convoy? I would like to join this drive…
  6. @Kailas I am just finishing up some work and hopeful that I can join this drive… can I confirm by 5?
  7. It’s the media link posted on dive post https://www.travelawaits.com/2683734/perseid-meteor-shower-august-2021/ 1st paragraph!!!
  8. Hi @Frederic seems the team is all prepped up… was just going through the news link and it says that the peak is between 11th august night to 12th morning…the drive is planned for 12th night… 24 hours later to the expected peak in showers…. Is this how it’s planned or m I missing something… I am curious as I plan to go out to watch this event with family and want to make sure that I don’t end up getting house arrest for picking the wrong day!
  9. @Frederic 12.5 is amazing!! I get around 16 17 on my LWB 3.8 as well! Maybe cos I drive +20 speed limit 90% of the time on highways and use unichip in dunes! How’s your car fuel consumption look like @Adhir Saxena @Wrangeld @Anish S
  10. Hi @Lorenzo Candelpergher thanks for posting this drive! Is this a fewbie drive or intermediate…??? drive details indicate intermediate!
  11. The inherent reason why we all drive in the desert is to enjoy ourselves some time off from our sometimes mundane and sometime Exciting work Life… everybody has their own reason. Out there among the dunes, it’s not a competition of who can climb higher or faster or fly off the dunes. It’s a way for us to relax and enjoy the sport in a safe manner. just like no finger on our hand is same, no car or driver is expected to be same however we keep Developing our skills to drive at same level with our fellow drivers. Even the best drivers and cars have bad days… we get in and get out as a team! these drives with @Carnity are our way to unwind and not a rally. Healthy banter is always welcomed!!! And it’s our own choice which drives to join! Regarding Pajero’s capability, I believe it’s as good as the driver can be!
  12. Hi @Lorenzo Candelpergher due to some technical Issues with car I have removed myself from the drive! I was so looking forward for Reloaded action packed drive. Hope you guys have safe fun filled roller coaster ride! Missing it already😭
  13. I do not recall any specific sound like that…however it may have lost between Clickety clacks while Shifting gears in drive and reverse
  14. Yes… I was using only 1 foot to either gas up or brake… maybe that’s why my diff is still Ok. Just curious on the PMDL.. wouldn’t applying brakes stop all wheels from rotating?
  15. I am Not sure if I get your method @Gaurav do you mean to give gas at 2k rpm and release brakes in bursts? I was revving up and then braking to rock The car. I guess that was too much for the ujoint!
  16. Very well articulated trip report! yes you are right @Srikumar it’s the Ujoint which gave away due to the stress… I guess this was coming nevertheless… glad now it is replaced. thanks @Mario Cornejo @Thomas Varghese for tuggging me out on to a flat surface! And superb leadership @Srikumar for managing two different situations and finding an easy way out while still having fun throughout! 🤟🏻 @Abu Muhammad hope your passengers were ok on the Tarmac! Driving on 2WD for such long time on the dunes wouldn’t have been so confidently executed if not for @Wrangeld’s 2500 rpm drive!! We should have more of these drives to learn these skills. thanks Richard ! my car is now ready for yet another challenge!!! until next time!
  17. Congrats @Aisha S! Meeting you as a fellow passenger with @Arman and now a fewbie off-roader is amazing! Well done!
