Yes its me Expert Waleed who is going to write the trip report this time, since Marshal Ahmed car decided that she is not in the mood for a drive.
So we were supposed to meet today at 5:15am however, it was foggy so we had to start a bit late. At 6am marshal ahmed started the briefing explaining today trip driving and then the convey was set as below:
1- Marshal Ahmed
2- Expert Waleed ( second lead)
3- Advance Reji
4- Advance Nick
5- Expert Emre (Sweeper)
6- (Support) Marshal Tompa
We started moving by 6:15 and as Marshal Ahmed was warming up with medium dunes, his front differential started to leak so we went to the gate and dropped his car.
Marshal Ahmed decided to give me the lead and he was my passenger, I was lucky to have him by my side, giving me good tips.
Convey was set as below
1- Expert Waleed (leader) with Marshal
Ahmed support
2- Expert Emre (Second lead)
3- Advance Reji
4- Advance Nick
6- Marshal Tompa (Sweeper)
We started moving again and did a couple of switches, after that Expert Emre had an issue with his car so we dropped him at the catdsh road, unfortunately he had to leave.
Again convey order was set up as below
1- Expert Waleed (leader) with Marshal
Ahmed support
2- Advance Reji (second lead)
3- Advance Nick
4- Marshal Tompa (Sweeper)
We moved again and practice on some switches on the medium size dunes, some drivers had a couple of second tries and we kept practicing again and again to sharpen the skills.
Since the trip purpose is easy advance and sharpen the skills, we didn’t do much switching at bigger dunes.
During break Marshal ahmed gave some briefing to explain to the drivers, how to take some of the switch such as double or triple switch on a medium size dune. Also its was explained were the driver should decide to hook up his car with the crest and start switching.
Thanks for all drivers who attended and you guys did great.
Marshal Ahmed thanks again for allowing me to lead this trip and off course Marshal Tompa was really pleasure having you as our Chief support.
Hope to see you all soon on the DUNES
