Already got plans for that weekend, away with family :thumbdown: Darn
But I understand there may be another such training again later one.

Guys, (I cannot speak for myself here), but I think it is of great value if we can show up in numbers for this one. I think Nissan still needs to buy into this collaboration with Nissan 4x4 thing.
