Testing water - Advanced
Posted: Sun Oct 31, 2021 12:15 pm
Dear members,
Here is the trip report of Friday's early morning Advanced level ride.
The trip was smooth and more about basic skills of cresting, switching, approach angle towards the crest and arrival to the base of the dune. In the first third of the trip during warm-up, we have identified what are the elements to be sharpened and we tackled it so well. The rest of the trip was huge progress in pace and performance of all drivers. I am honored to drive with you all and haer your feedbacks about the drive! I hope you all enjoyed it and will be joining me more in the future.
The convoy order was as follows:
Me as a first lead. Please leave your commentaries of what you did and didn't like
2nd lead - Tareq. You are an incredible driver with super control of the car, its' speed and then the convoy. And amazing friend with a beautiful copilot. Thanks to Rania for the photos and videos!
3rd - Emre. The jeeper, my buddy Very good progress and attention to instructions. You absorb all of the information as a sponge and perform on the drive immediately. Super cool driver.
4th - Dereck. It is not easy to manage a truck following the jeep. Long wheelbase and shifting pedals on the steering were actually working for your advantage. You gained a lot of confidence and managed to follow so well!
5th - Paul. Also truck buddy! You did a great track same as Dereck. You've turned your car disadvantages towards your own benefit. Oversteering was a bit against you still, you were able to manage your car on the track and most importantly it was done safely.
6th - Magdy. Hats off to you following Jeeps and V8s with your almost stock Pajero! You have improved hugely by end of the drive. Managed to find your own safe way to the convoy all the time. This is what makes an offroader a skilled driver. When you don't fight to break your car but manage it in your car style and capabilities. But please change to Jeep Your driving potential should not be limited to your car.
Kind regards,
Daiana
