OK, rain was only light today, it's stopped now with roads already drying up, and tomorrow's forecast is dry and cool - so it looks like Friday will be perfect.

*** IMPORTANT *** *** IMPORTANT *** *** IMPORTANT ***

Here's the MEET location info:

On Friday afternoon I and the drive group will be available to meet you guys between 3:00 and 3:30PM at this location: after 130km of straight highway from Dubai to Al Ain, you will reach the first Al Ain roundabout.

Take a left at that first roundabout. You will see an ADNOC gas station on your right, and on your left, directly opposite, will be a parking lot with a cafeteria called "Golden Burger" - that's the location.

so, LEFT AT FIRST AL AIN ROUNDABOUT, PARK AT "GOLDEN BURGER" CAFETERIA ON LEFT SIDE

As earlier suggested, you guys meet at Outlet Mall at 2PM (it's on the Dubai-Al Ain highway, right side, big round ball on roof) - and I will meet you at the entrance to Al Ain to guide you in through the roundabouts straight to Jebel Hafeet.

If you miss our meeting point, you can also go directly to the MEET which will be in the late afternoon, up at the very top parking lot on Jebel Hafeet.

We plan to talk, admire cars, take pics, meet the members, award the prizes, enjoy the weather and view - absolutely no driving stunts at all! - and after sun set head down to town for a sandwich and then free to return to Dubai or hang around.

See you there!

Weather's back to normal and no clouds in the sky (but cold!) - it's going to be perfect for Friday.

As for the starter, not to worry bud - I assume the distributor got moist. Just disconnect and dry it out. Personally, I don't like them blowing compressed air into delicate engine parts, so don't let them do that. If you're in a hurry, spraying WD-40 inside will help.

Or do you mean the starter motor doesn't turn over? In that case, it's prolly the contacts from the battery. Disconnect the wires at the starter motor, let them dry and then give them a good scrub with sand-paper.

I need to wash my car!!!!!!

Kingkenny, got the prizes in hand? 8)

I'll let someone from Dubai pitch in here - I will wait for you guys at the entrance to Al Ain (first roundabout left, at Golden Burger cafeteria) so I'm not going to be at the Outlet Mall.

It was suggested that Dubai/Sharjah members leave the Outlet Mall at 2:00PM as a group, exactly like you're suggesting.
