No thank you. You may remove my name and give the spot to someone else.

Just wanted to share this with the group....😀😀 on a drive this morning, (I shall share the track) we found a second yellow truck. Looks like it has been here only a few months. Maybe something for Carnity in a next drive.

Hi @Mario Cornejo, I have been through there. Mostly, I am not afraid to take on challenges, with a bit of common sense, preparation and a lot of calm demeanor most situations can be solved. But for this crossing I would not recommend you take along a nervous driver or one with no previous experience. The drive kept me humble. Wednesday's Yellow truck drive will be challenging but in my opinion, not even comparable to the Liwa crossing route. The Liwa crossing route has enormous dunes, from start to finish. Typical powder-like Liwa sand and will challenge you. And yes, once you enter, you either exit at the entry or the end point. Going South will take you to Saudi, trying to exit North will be just as far as pushing through with the added difficulty if driving against the slip faces of dunes. That being said, if you want to experience the absolute beauty of the desert, barren nature at it's best you have to take on this drive. Just remember to organize two or three vehicles to join you......you have my number if you ever have a spot to fill. I will gladly do it again 😆😆 Oh and lastly, I would recommend doing the drive over two days and not one. It is way to breathtakingly beautiful to cross in a single day. I stand to be corrected on this opinion. Btw....at the time I did the route I had not been introduced to Giaia. 😪 But I did create a track with waypoints and coordinates.

Apologies and thank you @PaoloMaraziti. I missed that info.

@Gaurav...hope you are doing well! May I please ask how you are planning the route to the Yellow Truck. Specifically on which side are you planning to exit the desert again? On the same side from where we will enter or are you planning to continue trough the desert and exit on the side of the E15? I am planning to meet some friends and we will camp for the rest of the weekend and I would like to arrange with them where I can meet them. 😄 Thank you...!

About that recovery........what happened in the desert, stays in the desert.

Thank you again team Carnity...and thank you for all the treats

The usual suspects....we should get a name for the IM gang...🤣

@JeromeFJ.....awesome. @Mus_hus78....nice. This is gonna be a fun drive.....

All because you guys equipped us with the skills....😀😀

If your navigational skills are good...you will be more than able to do it for a weekend.

Ive been to the yellow truck twice in the past 2 months....this is an amazing area and so beautiful. Pure desert with spectacular clean dunes. Can't wait!

Final touches.... Need a clean aerodynamic Jeep 🤣🤣

What are the rules in the event of a complete mechanical failure of one team member's car? Is the team disqualified? Can that member continue with another team member?

Thank you Srikumar, and thank you also for all the effort during a difficult 2020 where you came to AD many weekends to lead us in exciting drives.

Baie dankie!

Thank you @Frederic. Hope we will have the privilege to endure many more drives. Thank you @Gaurav. It is an honor and great fun to drive with Carnity! Thank you Islam. And while on the topic, thank you for a great drive on Friday afternoon in a very nice area! Thank you ZED - it has been a long time that we drove together. Hope there will be many more! Thank you @PaoloMaraziti. To many more!

Congratulations @JeromeFJ. Always fun to drive with you!

Bwahahaha....not the squid games.... Green Light....Red Light.........BANG

This is the quote of the day....by far. Totally agree. Ill bring xtra fuel...just in case Sri is very liberal with the gas pedal or we end up in Oman.....

Zed's Y62 after tomorrow night....loosing it's wheels

Can that Y62 keep up the speed, bouncing off dunes and retain all body parts?

Shorter convoy....faster driving......Jeep is done flying. I cut it's wings.

Amazing adventurous idea!!

Whoop Whoop......this is gonna be fun!!!
