    Thanks for joining the drive :ymhug:
    Hope you enjoyed it ๐Ÿ˜€
    Considering the nature of a night drive to be challenging due to low visibility, everyone did great job :yesss: :ymapplause:
    Greg – great second lead, obvious improved skills :yesss:
    Yuri – the only one not to get stuck or having second attempts – that says it all :yesss:
    Faheem – thanks for the support buddy :ymhug: :ymhug: :ymhug:

    Hope to see you all soon :drive:

    Enjoyed it!!? We had a BLAST! My 1st full night drive. Never thought it can be so challenging, but so much fun at the same time. Completely different experience from what I’m used to. My wife’s scream-o-merer was going off the charts

    Denis, you’re got some skill man! Thanks for leading and choosing a very interesting route.
    Faheem, thank you for watching our backs.
    Greg, I was really surprised that a stock JK sport can do what it did in your hands, and with two passengers on board nonetheless.

    PS to be fair I had couple of second tries that night :ymblushing:
