Meeting Time: 14.30pm
Drive Start: 14.45pm sharp
Drive Route & Terrain: dare I say sand! 😕
Duration: 3/4 hours (before sundown) =;
A tricky drive in a soft area with plenty of ridges and bowls to keep you on your toes.
The area has all the high dunes which we will visit before we finish at sundown at a point to be decided by your lead Marshall.
This area is less busy than what you are used to and so we will have plenty of trackless dunes to enjoy our sport.
Hope all can make it for some Friday fun! Adrenalin will be guaranteed.

To be honest I have no experience of your vehicle. But in general, if your car does not have a separate 4×4 engage then the vehicle is not suitable to offroad with. At least on my drives.
All wheel drive vehicles do have capability but your progression in offroad driving will be limited to newbie drives.
If your vehicle is not designed to go offroad then I cannot guarantee you will be happy with the state of your vehicle after the drive. 😕
Just a gentle warning. It is of course your choice. 😀
