FDD4 -2 weeks...
Final test session in progress
Settled on my MT I as primary controller, and locked in the settings for each vehicle.
Just getting familiar with how each one handles the dunes, rope bridge and the hillock before packing them away and transferring to base camp in Briare!
I love puttering with gears

I don't imagine I will be competitive, so I'm going to try and enjoy the atmosphere and maybe learn a bit from those Raid crazy French and Spanish entrants.
Live updates from the event on here of course!

I t was a very sociable meal, and we all meet up again tomorrow for breakfast in the hall before the games start!
Table chat would suggest the French organize FDD in the spirit of commaradary rather than competition. I doubt I will upset the applecart, but a hush fell over the restaurant when the first if the Spanish entrants walked in...
