Dear desert explorers, @Alexanderrr @_Herman_ @Frans M @Zsolt @H3 Joe @Deepak Eswar @Beide Worku Thank you for joining this FB+ drive. We were well on time for the briefing, where we recalled the importance of convoy and maneuvering rules, as I shared the story of Naheel rollover, and as always, one of the the golden rule: don't fight gravity. We started the drive by playing on the first dune, then continued to the second dunes. We had the chances to climb and to do ridge riding downhill, I noticed some were still fighting gravity, which caused fishtailing. There were a few refusals were the cars could not maintain the position on the ridge, and as always, steering down was the better and safer option. We tried the same climb a couple of time so everyone could do it nicely. Overall everyone drove confidently, also for the first-time FB+ @_Herman_ and some FB+ @Zsolt well done guys. We had one stuck when @Frans M experienced a refusal, so @H3 Joe decided to stop. Thanks to @H3 Joe for not overtaking, as that could have led to a bad situation, well done 🫡. The shoveling team recovered the Hummer in no time 👏, Great teamwork!. To enjoy the third dune, we had to pass through a technical patch. Once we reached it, we took a short break and discussed the drive, sharing feedback about not fighting gravity and avoiding fishtailing. Then we continued playing on the third dune. While exiting to head to the next one, we had an unexpected incident: @Deepak Eswar car rolled over. Thanks God 🙏 he is okay, no scratches, and the car ended up back on its wheel with very minimal damage. The sand was tricky, mixed soft on the top and still compacted underneath. We got amazing video footage from @Beide Worku. It was his first time filming, and he decided to mount the camera on the front left instead of rear, and the accident happened right in front of him. We reviewed the video, and it was priceless learning for everyone 🙏. I may use the video without mention the name to remind everyone during my future @Carnity drive briefing 🙏. I decided to end the drive and we slowly exited to the nearest point. Thanks to our second lead @Alexanderrr, CF @Frans M and the no number plate left behind (he got one) @Beide Worku for your support and during recovery. Hope to see you all 🫡, and especially @Deepak Eswar back on sand soon.

Dear Opacarophiles, What an incredible time we had enjoying the sunset together ☺️. The 2 hour drive on the dunes next to the crescent moon lake was truly enjoyable. We even got the opportunity to practice switching. @nickJp, @Nabeel Abdul Rahman, @Sheho, as new fewbie, you all did great! Just remember to approach smoothly next time when switching 😉. For the rest of the convoy @Kashx2, @Suneedh Wrangler, @Abdullah A. and @Shary, It was easy an drive for you, and you handled it perfectly 🫡. I had my own adventure on that perfect crest 🤣. Big thanks to the shoveling team for saving me from pitching a tent there 😄. Thanks to our responsive second lead @Mei Ling and to @J-P L and @Frans M for the solid support in the center so I can focus on navigation. And of course hats off to our amazing sweeper @Giacomo, for your handy onboard compressor and the chocolate treat😋. Last but not least, that hot chai karak was nice. Thanks @Abdullah A.. See you soon in the sand 🫡.

Hi @Sheho yes you can join. You can use my compressor. See you soon also I have extra hose. Let see if the couplers are the same with your compressor

As I know, it is only in Sharjah. But for exhaust sound, there are some camera detecting the sound level, not only in Sharjah.

I was driving in the night before I posted a Fb Drive Nazwa to Big Red during that rainy day. I did not see any police stopping cars. It was around 8 PM and during workday, I am not sure during weekend.

Hello @Jabir, Welcome to Carnity. I saw that you RSVP'd for this drive. This is a Fewbie-level drive. If you have experience driving in the desert with another club, that is great! However, we do ask that everyone completes at least one Newbie-level drive first. This helps the lead observe your skills and ensure the safety. Then you can apply for a promotion to Fewbie-level by submitting proof of your pass experience. I am really sorry, but I will need to remove you from this drive. We would love to have you on the future drives!
