The food here in Dubai is fantastic. They go all out when they have guests! For us they had an amazing spread and they do not skimp out on the portions. I had enough food on 3 plates to feed an entire family. Needless to say I couldn't eat it all but it was AMAZING food! Beef, Chicken, Rice, Pasta, Indian style curry/chili, sandwiches, salad, and even homemade ice cream!!


They got me smoking the Huka! hahah


A little midnight night ride action!!


The Funco ENZO G-52


My sons name is ENZO so I love the name of this sand rail


This is what CAMP looks like when you walk in! The man cave is the building on the left. I posted pics of the interior yesterday.


They have some really nice cars to drive to the sand in! They love their AWD cars.

is that just one camp with nothing else around? generator power or power lines? onsite maintenance shop or do the cars go out for maintenance? do these guys work at all or is it just all play time?

One huge compound right when you enter the dunes. Think of driving down Gecko then at Pad one you just completely fenced in the whole thing and built like 8 - 1 Room w/ 1 Bathroom houses, 1 main "Man Cave" house thats like 1000 sq ft with all the amenities, another 1000 sq ft party tent (with glass sliding doors), a large outdoor fire / party area with movie screen, and then some quarters for the full time staff to cook meals, clean, etc. Our room was serviced just like a hotel today, staff is running around always making sure you have what you need.

These guys wake up and all of their cars have been prepped by a full time staff of mechanics. They go shred the dunes come back and the mechanics pull the cars into an onsite garage (there are about 10 high end sand cars here that include all kinds of funcos and buckshots including the first Monster Energy Buckshot X2R, lol) and the crew immediately goes to work pulling them in, cleaning, fixing, gassing up, etc so the cars are ready for the next ride.

In a nut shell, its everything we dream of! hahahah NO JOKE!

Its just Grant and I here. While they would probably let Grant or I drive one of the buggies if we asked we have chosen not to go there. These are their toys and they have no lack in driving skills. I am actually surprised. These guys drive these things harder than anyone I have ever seen. I can attest, having ridden with Grant in the dunes in a 2011 Funco G-06 HE CAN FLAT OUT DRIVE! Riding with Grant changed my life! hahah

They have however set us up with our own UTV and we are getting through the dunes with no problems. Yesterday we had a RZR XP900, today we had a RZR4 (pictured below). BTW Grant says hi Mitch!



They have taken such good care of us in the 2 days we have been here! I am having a BLAST!
