Thanks a lot @Gaurav, @Islam Soliman@Yousef Alimadadi for making my first night ride a very enjoyable and pleasant one, i thought i would be stressing out given the new experience, yet i enjoyed every minute of it, looking for more night drives now. For everyone in the convoy, it has been great riding with you, guess we were just blessed to have the right collection of drivers constructing the convoy, in alignment to the sighting of the shooting star by @Gaurav and @Islam Soliman at the beginning made this a very smooth ride 😀

thanks a lot @Gaurav interesting to learn all of those options, i will definitely consider them, good to know there is an advantage to the UAE's hot weather🙂

@Lawrence_Chehimi, it could be ok for the battery if it is new as well as the car, but for the tyres it really depends but it can cause this flat spot, as per the link shared by @Niki also, changing the oil is recommended for any duration more than a month or so, i didn't know that.
also covering any openings like the exhausts.. for example so as not to let small creatures having this as their nest especially of it s parked outside, which is i guess unlikely to happen here but just in case.

thanks a lot @Niki for the informative link and information, i didn't know the "flat stopper" solution existed, there are other points in the link that is quite interesting to consider as well.
i am mostly concerned about the tyres, all what i could get in terms of ideas is either lift the whole car over jack stands, or use the flat stopper or of course the best solution which is to have someone to drive it every week or so if you can find this volunteer and in our case they need to do this for 2 cars so... 😁.
@Islam Soliman, as far as i understood the issue rises because the tyres resting on hard ground at a single spot for a long time, this spot start to flatten and some type of deformation occurs to the rubber, apparently this deformation sometime it is temporary as soon as you start driving the car again, other times it is just permanent depending on the size and duration i guess, (as a pure speculation from my side not depending on any solid information 😃) theoretically those flat stoppers allow the tyres to keep its circular shape instead of letting the tyres take the flat shape of the solid ground.
just crossed my mind, an out of the box idea yet not applicable, to park the car on the sand, soft enough will not harm the tyres 😂.
i just realized because of the Covid, a lot of people haven't been back their home countries for a long time so when they plan to go they stay there for a long time as well, and the flexible teleworking model that have been implemented almost everywhere, made it easier for people to work anywhere for some time, which brings another idea, why not make a business that provides a service that someone will take the car for a ride and a wash every week, i know i am willing to pay for that😉.
@Frederic, guess the inflating solution could work theoretically but the tyres tend to slowly deflate after quite some time, not sure if it could reach the point of getting the flat spot though?!

It is a shaded parking but opened from 2 sides, so it is considered outside

thanks @Alexander Alcala, no issue for the jacks to be raising the car for this long period?

Hi,
Any recommendations to what to do when leaving the car parked for a long duration (2 months) so as not to jeopardize any elements of the car, mainly tyres, battery.....?

Thanks a lot everyone, @Ale Vallecchi, your drive was the absolute first drive where you really put us on the pace for what to come, then had the chance to join the interesting ghost roads drive.
@Emmanuel, glad to have joined one of the 'relatively' technical drives for Newbie
@Rahimdad, thanks for your confidence putting me in a sweep position, I tried my best based on what I learned from all the successful sweepers in my previous drives, apart from that this drive was really challenging with so much to learn in one drive.
@Danish Mohammad, @Nivin, great support always from you guys,
@Lakshmi Narasimhan, my partner in crime, till next time 😀

@Jasim Khumi I almost did the same, just because I changed the usual order and started deflating before removing the flag 😄

Thanks a lot @Rahimdad, and @Islam Soliman for the amazing drive and for pushing the limits, where everyone really managed to do it.
Even though it was quite crowded, but it was really enjoyable, I assume this area is never empty, ha?!🤔
