K Rustom if I may say so. How come churchgate altogether ? Guess I know why, but sundays govt offices are closed

Ohh no no!! Not that reason! The reason is that we need a nice scenic drive and a relaxing snack place where we will get alot of parking.

Just one thought guys. Its been a year now and we have never had a night meet, except for the the Anniversary. What do u think guys?

Cyrus43 · 26th September 2008, 21:45

Well, We can have another dinner meet in a few months. As for October 5th, Lets keep it as schedueled in the morning. The only thing to decide now is the locations.

Yo guys, a drive down marine drive is super. But let's all get our fiats this time

MRX 6839 will soon be gone for work, and this is one time she'll get to meet her friends..

@CYRUS: I have just returned home after a wonderful two day stay in Pune.

However, as discussed earlier lets start off (or end??) from/at another Heritage point in mumbai and do the rally at Marine Drive as desired by one and all.

Done!! How about this, Lets start at Gateway of India at 9 30AM and then make our way to Nariman Point. How does this sound?? Also, Roni baba, did you get the millicento back??

SuperSelect · 26th September 2008, 23:34

Here's what we can do-
Meet at Malabar Hill somewhere close to Sahyadri. Blast down the road past the loop at teen batti, come screaming down walkeshwar road, past the chicane at Babulnath band stand, and hit the marine drive straight... All the way upto (the chequered flag) the Oberoi / NCPA. Take a u turn, pose for pictures opposite the Marine Plaza Hotel, turn right at Churchgate junction pitstop at K Rustom's.
Binge on ice cream like we're about to be nuked.
Go home, and pass out.

@CYRUS: MILLICENTO prefers and deserves Pune weather and protective indoor care. She stays there with her family, until her turn for resto.

Your suggestion from Gateway of India is fine with me, as long as all the club members confirm the same.

@RAVI: I like your suggestion too.
May be you were posting just when I was replying Cyrus.
However, both the suggestions are cool.

We still have lots o time to decide and fine tune.
Lets keep Thursday 2nd October deadline for finalisation.

Cyrus43 · 26th September 2008, 23:42

@Ravi, Nice Idea!!

@ President, Get her in time for the drive though. If not, you better get the First Citizen of the Club

SuperSelect · 26th September 2008, 23:59

Great, let's fix the run details later. I've gotten in touch with Chandubhai Morzaria (the "dagli - walla" in the lane behind Parsi dairy at princess street), and he has promised to bring his immaculate super select. (BTW he's a big fan of Behram !). Also chatted up one Mr. Anand Deodhar at girgaum (1957 elegant, black, small headlights, complete but needs TLC) who was quite excited about the FCCCI. He'll join us too.
