He he.. Amit, when tow ropes/ BHP etc fails it's ONLY the human HP that works. And no better person than you for the human HP part with 'cold water' in the radiator and tons of 'low end torque' .

This almost 'unwritten rule' has been proved in OTR's after OTR's. Even in say the TG Halli OTR it was the human HP that made the CJ-7 climb and in the pearl valley OTR when tow ropes and tons of BHP failed, it was the human HP that got the MM550 out of the slush .

Cheers,

I'm sure the act of "sit in air conditioned safari with cold water" can done over and over again until Rudra says OK

Edit: All the "cold stuff" is sorted - the "simple men" are taking of it. If you want your own "cold water bottle"", bring it with you.

Proper report will follow in time. Our reporter was there with his Aveo and I'm sure he'll put a detailed one here soon. This was my very first experience with these people on OTR. I'm happy to pull out some shots today.

Wow.. amazing photographs rudra. .

I in my life time can't get to this level of photography and it's finer nuances, but can only imagine and appreciate the years of effort & experience behind these pictures. Just 'seeing again and again' kind of pictures.

Thanks to all who came and were a part of this OTR. Though the terrain was not how most of us would have liked but still it was a great sunday morning/afternoon

PS: the OTR journalist should be putting up a report soon. I wonder why he is late -- it's just tooooooooo late by his standards.

Aha! Deadly photographs... At this rate BHPians will stop visiting track day and start looking to buy Jeeps.

Darn, I am missing all the fun.

The aforementioned journalist had to cover another event later in the evening, I'm sure his report will be up first thing in the morning.
