  1. Congrats @Mark B absolutely well deserved promotion mate, can’t wait for some of your upcoming drives!
  2. Fantastic write up @Thomas54675 I had written one similar a maybe 2 years ago now, I’m so glad the process is easier and more so improved on now. side note: love the looks of the decal you went for definitely very retro 💪

  5. Congrats @Mark B very well done mate! And well deserved will be looking forward to joining your first drive
  6. @Emanuel @Looper hey guys unfortunately I need to drop out, I was hoping to have more study done for my final exam on Monday apologies for the inconvenience
  7. Completely agree with @Gaurav, typically on the JL models the rear bumper tends to snag a lot on technical dunes, originally I had a stock Sport JL rear bumper which I had zip ties holding together the plate onto the rear, eventually this failed and I changed to an anniversary bumper (can't remember the exact one) which also didn't work as a result I lost my rear plate during a drive, now keep in mind this held together for the best part of 90-ish drives. As of now my best advice is do go for a number plate holder which mounts onto the spare wheel you'll avoid any issues with losing your plate, just remember to carry the correct allen key so that you can still access the spare wheel. now that your plate is positioned higher remember to get a light wired up to the new plate mount so that you don't get any fines driving at night. You can also decide to look into aftermarket rear bumpers if you want, but my advice is to wait until your rear bumper has taken all the abuse it can take, they tend to hold out very well but it removes the risk of losing your rear plate during a drive. So far the current modifying you have done looks good, it might even prevent further damage I think the keypoint really is your plate position, although if your comfortable removing and reattaching your plate during each drive then that's perfectly fine too
  8. Congratulations @Ishak enjoy this fantastic opportunity, I’m looking forward to supporting your drives very soon!

  13. DRIVE DESCRIPTION Welcome to Carnity off road club Fewbie plus drive in the beautiful Abu Dhabi Desert, please ensure your off-road gear is as per your rank and you bring lots of enthusiasm with you. We plan to revisit Fayah instead of the traditional approach we are going to embark on a journey towards the Sweihan entrance and exit towards Fayah, along the way we will encounter the Fox Den with the possibility of reaching an optional second Fox Den which was discovered recently. I recommend if you're taking any passengers to ensure they are experienced with the desert, as we will practice a range of different skills with a focus on ridge-riding. And bring plenty of patience.
