Dear @Krishna R @Deepak 11 @Yerem Davtyan @Yaseen87 @Emanuel @Ashutosh Garg @Rayas Ali @Murtaza Bhuria @Alfred Alinazar @Paolo Morresi @FARAZ MOHAMMED @Mostafa Elbadawi

 

1st of all thanks for your interest in joining my GO TECH series in its 3rd edition; and 2nd thanks that you were not put off by my warning remarks in the drive post. I want to make sure when you join these drives you know what to expect as these drives are not for everyone! You still have another 2hrs to think it over (run for your life 😈).. just kidding..

My self and @Looper sincerely hope to drive with you all tomorrow and will count you in unless you have any change in plan. To be fair for the WL drivers, appreciate letting us know before 5:00pm tonight if you will not be joining so we can take the WL on as I will be closing the convoy order by 7:00pm.

@Paolo Pellegrini you are 1st on WL as you are the only one with no drives for this weekend so you I will try to get you in as I'd hate to leave you off the sand for the weekend

@Dr Tanveer Ahmed, stay tuned if someone dropped you will be on.

 

 

Pre-drive details below:

1- Please be on time and bring all your passion for off-roading and pull as much as you can of yourself out of bed.. trust me you will need all of it.

2- Be at the meeting point by 6:30am (or before) and be ready to move max by 6:45am max (deflated, flag erected, 4H on, radio on and set, airbags/traction/abs all set....) 

3- Please ensure your programable radio is on, fully charged and set to Channel 1 (446,006) 

4- Briefing will be done on on the sand before we start moving

5- Please be prepared for a demanding drive which you will require your undivided attention. Bringing passengers is ok provided they will not be a cause for distraction and don't have known motion sickness or fear of heights.

6- Please ensure everything in the car is tied down and no moving objects 

7- Please check all car fluids, tow hooks, and ensure no hanging parts below the chassis.

8- please ensure you come with a full tank (as much as possible) in addition to all necessary gear for this drive level specially your safety flag and radio (NO FLAG or RADIO = NO DRIVE)

9- Meeting Point: https://goo.gl/maps/UGVDtqo5Khmwf3PN8 (when you arrive please drive 50m into the pylon track to your left so you are not blocking the camels training tracks)

10. Convoy Order will be shared later tonight
