VTC RED RPM - Advance

Post by Waleedaljaberi »

We started briefing at 6:15 and I explained to the drivers the trip techniques for today.

Convey order:

1- Waleed - Explorer
2- Marshal Zak - 2nd lead
3- Rick - Advance
4- Dan - Advance
5- Ahmed (Sarab) - Advance
6- Davorin - Advance - Sweaper
7- Marshal Tompa - Support
8- Marshal John - Support

During the trip Dan & Davorin had issues with their car so they lift the trip, nothing serious and they are fine.

Since its a VTC RED RPM the drive level was a bit challenging, we did fast pace during switches, cresting on high dunes with speed and taking multiple switches.

The drive was a bit challenging for some drivers but they all did well and managed to handle their cars.

I focused on this trip to decrease my fear limitation and also for the drivers behind me so we can be better drivers, by practicing different techniques.

It was fun and we made it all to the Gate safely by 9:50am.

Hope to see you all soon on the DUNES ✌🏽✌🏽

Thanks Waleed for this amazing trip. It has been more than a year for me and gate 12 did not disappoint. All the drivers did well and the track was a good mix of high dunes and technical switching.

looking forward to the next one.

Thanks Waleed for organizing this trip.
G12 is always G12, no soft start and serial crests attack.
Everything was done in safety, even if some people had trouble following.
It was fun and it allows the less experienced drivers to learn to master the engine power and the gearbox management.
See you soon on the sand.
