GULF NEWS FUN DRIVE (FEEDBACK)

Post by jeep »

i just came back from the gulf news fun drive , in general it was good.
was better last year.

lots of easy track , so we had to always make our own track (today was the first time i get stuck ) , there was this place i found on the side very nice dune and some land crousers trying hard to get up but only get to the middle of the way , so i thought why not to show them the real thing so i went and i reached the top but didn't know what was on the other side so i slowed down and turned to the side and damn i got stuck :( fasheeeelah specailly that the guy from gulfnews passed by and started taking pics , hmmm i hope it won't be in the news paper :wink:
bas at least i did make it to the top :D

It was a nice trip actually, much more better than KTFD. Yes last year was much better, but they said it'll be an easy trip.

The funny thing is that people were getting stuck on that easy track. Don't know how, even if you tried to get stuck in this track you will not ..... :lol: :lol:

The weather was great. The company was good and I enjoyed the day.

Jeep, you have to learn how to drive.

Yes, it was a fun drive overall. I liked it. Even though the GNFD marshals sucked in that they passed by alot of stuck cars and did nothing. That made me appreciate our club marshals more.

I was riding with Surfer. Thank you man. Overboost, was with us and a great show man (nice stunts). Finally, Thanks Iguana for the free breakfast :wink:

Sorry guys, forgot to say, Nice meeting you overboost today. It's good to put names on faces. I didn't know that you are from the motawa3een group :lol: :lol: :lol: .

You are welcome Bukhamis, and it was great to see you in the morning. I didn't have the chance to drive with you guys, you ran away from me in the morning I know :lol: :lol:

Denis, You rock man. You was driving like an expert today, going everywere without any problem, taking it easy on the kids and wife and managed to reach without any difficulty.

Now as you got a GPS, I wave to warn our committee that I can see a new Marshal on the way. Some recovery training and sand reading and you will have an easy approval from our Club Committee. Watch his Marshals and you will know what I mean.

Not at all :D . You know we like very much :D . And we really did wait more than 5 times during the course of the drive. At lease in 2 stops we waited for more than 20 minues in hopes to see you pass by. I even saw Jeep pass by and I was shouting his name but he did not hear me :cry: . This club rocks with its great members :D.

Yah, one more thing. It was a great pleasure for me to meet the other members in the morning especially Abo Omar :D :D :D .

This is the first time i attend GNFD , Which what appeared to be a boring easy track at the beginning , AS previously mentioned we had to make our own track... Which why we got lost Total 7 Cars we almost made it to Oman ;)

The Company was great .. The marshals were doing a great Job unlike GNFD Marshal who really sucked big time Big Applause for AD4X4 Marshals :ad4x4: :party:

Seif Tawfik , Abo Omar , Seif Akkary , Ehab , Azab and Mohsen you guys were Great Thank you All the way for the magnifecent time. ( Not all of these guys are AD4x4 members ) but they are great offroaders.

SPECIAL THANKS TO AHMED ADEEL WHO WERE SOO HELPFULL AND HIS COMPANY IS AN ENTERTAINMENT YOU CANT MISS..

Thanks for AD 4x4 Whom i Owe them big time for showing me the Yellow (desert) side of life which i am soo amused and getting better a trip after the other....

Hello All !

Yes ! the track was easy but we did try our own tricks and dunes whenever we got the chance.
Company of all the club members was great. Once again thanks to the AD4X4 Marshalls for keeping us from getting lost.
Great to meet other members and fun to be around.

Regards

Ahmed (Nissan Guy)

When we reached the assembly point in the morning, Iguana pointed out your car for me. So, when you passed by us, we saw your car. And this is when I shouted your name :D .
