Its 7 am, and teJuice has given kalti as predicted.

Goose and I are leaving at 7:30 from town. Will see you guys soon.

Tejas@perioimpl · 20th September 2009, 10:03

Sorry guys. Late night... Just couldn't wake up. Have a great time and post pics.

pranavt · 20th September 2009, 18:56

Back from the drive, had a great time. Hope the rest of the people had a safe journey back home, my car aquaplaned badly, twice on the way back because of the rain.

gaddiwale · 20th September 2009, 19:12

Back home safely, hope others too. Enjoyed the meet at the fullest. Thanks to all the Mumbai and Pune guys to make it happened. During return journey saw this burning Tata Vista just few kms ahead of Panvel exit of Express Highway (sorry for the bad pix quality, taken by phone). Horrible, but passengers were safe.
@ Uniquemods and Advait request you to post the photographs. Looking forward for next meet.

I couldn't trace the owner, he might have went to Mr. Ratan Tata's home to demand a Jaguar in repacement..

Sprucegoose · 20th September 2009, 20:38

It wasn't a tata.. it was a getz... big alloys [which inspite of burning, remained intact... damn] FFE
The guy had ripped by us some time earlier...
apparently one of his tyres blew out. [can't confirm this]
No one was hurt... except for me because of that DAMN pothole.
Damn Rim cracked.
Will post pictures in a bit.

PS it was pranavt's fault.
I was following him when he went into the pothole

Just kidding...

vikram18 · 20th September 2009, 20:55

It was a Getz all right. We saw it from the other side, on our way to Pune

May be I'm wrong, because the car was burning and I was in a safe distance. Hey you mean to say this is the Getz with Black bonnet/roof with FFE that crossed us just after we started from Khandala stop? Oh god! That time I was thinking this Getz is louder than your car.

pranavt · 20th September 2009, 21:39

So after how long did you leave once me and Paras had left?

@Sprucegoose: Damn dude. Fixable?

spawnofsatan · 20th September 2009, 22:05

Had a great time at the meet, met some great people, some poor souls such as TeJuice missed the meet.

That car was a getz, I have some great side profile pics which I will post tomorrow. I wonder what happened to the car. It was the news that the mum-pune expressway was jammed because of this.

I don't do writeups, so you will have to look elsewhere.
