Good morning, just had time since we left the desert Friday, to go through and type. First of all would like to thank you @Mehmet Volgafor giving me the opportunity to lead the drive, take our friends through the desert, trying to find a track which we enjoy and test our capabilities as drivers and our cars performances. i personally enjoyed it, and hope all of participants has the same.

@Alexanderrryou were amazing going through your first FB drive, and look forward to see you again.

 @Alexander Holodny@Damien Ranjit @Daniel Rodas @Mohamad Anwer @Luca Bregni you were amazing, no issues all the way through. Except the cheating incident 😅

@bassel el rafei pleasure meeting you for the first time, other than few refusals and re attempts, you've done a very good job, specially after 6 months, and welcome back to the desert.

@Paul Zeitoun and @Pacific thank you very much for looking after us in the back and centre. Your guidance was really good for every one. @Pacific I am not sure about comments kept hearing from @Mehmet Volga about your car and drive, but looks they are invalid, since nothing mentioned in the above drive report above 😉 

Re the bush operation, you have left nothing @Mehmet Volgato say. From day one joining @Carnity, and while driving with all leads, it was always the comment whenever we see any animal, the comments were always "careful, dont come close, dont scare and so on"... While driving, we always take our track between small bushes, yes to avoid jumping and bumping, but to avoid going over a small creature and cause any damage as well. Thank you for the brief you have put Mehmet, and it is a good guide for all of us to follow in such cases.

Great meeting and wish all the best, see you soon in sand

Apologies @M.Seidam I won't be able to make it tomorrow. Have to be in office tomorrow morning for urgent work. Enjoy, have a safe drive

@Hisham Masaadonce it is installed on windshield, can't be removed to use it with another car?

You can remove, but to fix some where else you need to have the base, which I am not sure you can buy separately @Harshad Ashraf

Any suggestion for Dashbaord camera. I am planing to buy for recording the video while driving off road. With good stabilize control.

I am using 70mai one, and happy with it.
