Re: CM drive - Secret driving skills

Having very little experience driving in sand, the CM drive this past weekend was a great learning experience.
Most of my off road driving experience has been in wet, rocky mountainous terrain, requiring slow and steady driving. After getting stuck on the very first big dune I needed assistance from the get go!
Luckily I had a founding member come to my rescue, and after a little bit of fuse box tweaking I was on my way again…with the wisest words I heard all day…Drive it like you stole it!!
I have to thank our lady marshal (girl power) that supported me when I got myself into a few sticky situations.
I also have to thank my fellow newbie driver, Ely for introducing me to this amazing group of people. All her guidance over the past couple of weeks has been invaluable. I would not have been on this drive if it wasn’t for Ely!
Lastly I’d like to thank the founding members, all the marshals and intermediate drivers for giving up your Saturday morning to support newbie drivers like myself. It is greatly appreciated.
Thank you to everyone for a great experience.
See you on the next newbie drive
Kind regards,
