Commo'n Sidhu! You are one of the senior most members from offroading fraternity in bangalore. I strongly second Khan's and Venki's recommendation in nominating you as the team rep!

Fazal sir, in this field you would always be my priority. Please introduce me to DKG. I have already sent the forms and just waiting for bank details. Thank you.

Cars will get only one attempt.
Doc, this is a very well planned get together and I wish you all the best. But I still do feel that in an OTR competition, you should give more time for these 50 vehicles to do their stuff AND compete. There should be some contingency (time wise) for any mishaps (which is quite common) in these kind of events. My suggestion would be to start off as early as possible in the morning and have a break for lunch, if needed. Good luck.

Thanks. Yup contingencies are planned.

EDIT:

Grace, thanks for the suggestion. Do you know any dealer for the same? We can look into it as well if there are numbers.

Dear Docji,

I was looking at some threads and this is what I found:

"Lol. I think this will be the souvenir during the EXAMM! 2011"

This refers to red switches. I sure hope you organise for plenty of these at the EXAMM, love to get my hands on atleast 2-3.

Warm Regards

Those red switches are available on ebay for like $15! Buy it in bulk (100pieces) from China for $4/each including shipping.

@Tejas

Wow, this is some amazing info put up by you. Well collated and all. Kudos to your efforts! Though I won't be able to make it, I keep gawking at the pics that you posted and feel the same emotion as the office guy in the Tata Safari ad.

'If you look back on your life, what would you remember?

The corner office?!'

Wish you guys the best!

Re: Examm is back! 16th & 17th July, 2011

LOL!

Just trying every trick in the book to get you to participate in EXAMM! 2011.


EDIT:

@ FazalSir,

Give a finger, and people will take the hand!!!

We follow the indian gov rules of 65 years for senior citizens. Senior citizen discount milega!

And anyways, aren't you 18 at heart?

I hope none of the regulars try to disguise themselves as women, just for the fee waiver

Thanks mate but EXAMM is just a participative sport and strictly not a competition. The whole idea is of getting together and camaraderie and not to compete but to help and learn from each other.

Damn you Imran, you just ruined my chances and gave my master plan away of "Letting my hair down" for the occasion. Now everyone will know so i cant participate for free

Getting the CJ and its "Mate" ready for Recce!!
