Great drive as usual Hisham. @Ranjan Das your instructions to get the car from that ditch were impressive; I never thought he will come out without being winched out or on all 4 wheels  Unfortunately no one had a camera handy to document how tilted that car was.. Good job. 

See you next time. 

Yes, forgot to mention. Thank you very much @Ranjan Dasfor the support on that incident. By the time I reached it was already sorted out. Much appreciated.

Great job everyone, new fb+ and old ones. Thank you for joining, and special thanks to drivers from Abu Dhabi. Started almost on time, with little delay due to foggy weather. The plan was as mentioned earlier to start with big red and finish by faya, crossing pink rock and Sweidan area. Unfortunately, with the news received that both are surrounded with fences, plan changed. We spent some time warming up on big red dunes, and then the actual fun transferred to badayer. Amazing performance by everyone, with few refusal, one stuck and one pop out. Thank you very much @Ranjan Dasfor supporting us, @Ashutosh Garg for the powerful and full adherence SL and @Sunil Mathewfor sweeping us, till the loss of the flag of Ranjan Das. Wish you @Salim Akhtar @Ignacio Quindós @Sam K @Haitham Khattab @Naim Aoun @Tareq Al Turq @Imran Kashif @Senthil Kumar @takeshi sobue nice week end, and look forward to see you again in sand. Below summary of the drive.

@Hisham Masaad thank you for a very thrilling drive and thank you for giving me the opportunity to be SL. I was so excited that I made the rookie mistake of driving off in 2H! Causing me to immediately get stuck. Luckily we had @Ranjan Das on hand to give me a quick tug. Thank you! And while the able support of @JeromeFJ was right at the other end of the convoy, it is always a pleasure to share a drive with you. And thanks to @Brette for the advise when I had some refusals. Always good to have a marshal present.

That was really amazing @Gerrit Bus, was really worth to wait for seconds for you to change battery and fix the camera 😂, next time you can take more time to fix. Thank you very much for recording almost the whole drive with the special events in between. Well done 👏🏼👏🏼

Drive plan

Most of the time we enter the desert, keep moving in the same area, and exit from the same. This time the plan is different. Planning to enter from the big red side, move to the pink rock, cross the road to the sweidan area. Cross sweidan to reach faya, to have some fun. However, depend on how we perform, things might change, accordingly.
