@Looper I’m sorry mate I can’t make it I noticed the engine temp started getting very hot I’m leaking coolant. Will have to call off. I deeply apologize was looking forward to meeting everyone

Congrats @ZakWarah enjoy the new level & challenge!

Congrats @Gary F well deserved! Our marshals can look forward to the family duo in support 😂

Thank you @Davie Chase amazing drive as usual from the smooth operator himself, the weather was perfect during the morning which really set up the ideal conditions for shoveling, which gladly we all got plenty of, looking forward to our next drive together I will be waiting to see your supervising skills put to the test again @Imran Asghar always great meeting up with you mate keeping the rear end anchored perfectly, made the drive much more calmer knowing I had extra support behind me if needed, hope to see you soon mate. @Mark B @Gary F I'm starting to wonder if the old wife's tale of two doves also apply to two gladiators seeing these behemoths carry themselves through the desert is both amazing and intimidating

don’t worry about popouts mate. We get good training out of it and it’s a great teaching point for anyone who hasn’t seen one fixed. it’s what support crew are there for!

@Abhilash Kottakkal my rim size is 18inch too. In all that time I’ve only ever had a partial pop-out on my front right during an extreme tight turn into a dune. rim size will definitely change the overall handling of your car and potentially even reduce the risk of a popout. However in my personal experience so far so good! I recommend to get use to your car. Become comfortable with 13 psi and then experiment reducing tyre pressure to a maximum of 10 psi. If you’re still not comfortable changing rim size and tyre is always an option. Just don’t make it your only option

@Mark B congratulations mate!! Well deserved. Looking forward to supporting some drives with you in the future!

Welcome Ben! There seems to be a large mass of us joining carnity now 😂 a pajero or an Xterra are both excellent choices to have out here in the Middle East for off-roading! Just always be careful when buying cars out here especially 4x4’s my recommendation is always check the chassis number and cross check everything the dealer is telling you. Also Sharjah is notorious for rebuild titles. This doesn’t mean you should avoid buying from the dealers down there just be extra careful! awesome pics btw.

@Srikumar hey! This is my 2018 Jeep wrangler. It’s got a 2.5 inch lift. It is Trading Enterprises afterall that mentioned about this prop shaft showing significant wear.

Congrats @Rahul6157 enjoy the new level mate! New skills await

Great job @Faraz94 well deserved mate! Hope to see you out in the sand soon

Congrats @Rohit Deginal! Enjoy the new level mate!

Till next weekend lads. See you soon.

Good morning @Davie Chaseim sorry but I’m going to have to pull outside the drive. I was really looking forward to this weeks drive. I’ve come down with some illnesss in the last few hrs so we will see what the doc says 🤞

Congrats @Simon D! Very well deserved I hope to see you soon my friend

Congratulations @Rafey Hashmi let’s test the new limits of the jimny! Well deserved mate

Congratulations @sohinik great job mate!

Congrats @Renier Venter enjoy the new rank!

@DP1011 absolutely incredible mate! Truly well deserved achievement looking forward to joining some more of your drives in the future!

I have done no re-gearing so far and I can comfortably drive on all levels. Maybe even push harder. Though I would be interested to know the difference between elementary school and secondary school when it comes to the desert 😂. as for 4H and 4L I still primarily drive in 4H unless I need more torque which I can change on the go. Keep in mind this is with a regular jeep wrangler sport trim however I agree with @Frederic I’m happy being part of elementary school if it means everyone is having fun & being safe

Congratulations @JeromeFJ very well deserved mate! I really hope to find some time to make it to one of your drives in the future . Excellent job mate
