I called up the guys at BIC.. they say get two helmets, one for you and one for the passenger. One person is allowed in the car along with the driver.
Hope this helps.

It was Awesome, I was on the Track, Saw two cars with TBHP Sticker. One was a Black one AFAIRemeber.

I am attaching a few pics that I took for the Event on the Two Wheeler Section.

I was there on the track as well, along with M4UGR8 and his Glorious B16A. One heck of an experience it was, Watching the F1 drivers drive seems so easy on tv but you got to drive and see what it takes to be an F1driver. We are no where close to what machines and skills they have.

So,Got to do 6lap session where initails laps went into fiquring out the track and how its to be tamed as no warm up of guided tour was given by a pace car.

The F10A -800 did 3mins 16sec with an average speed of 94.5 km/h (till now).

Abhimanyu's ZEN GT-i did 3mins 16sec as well.

M4ugr8's B16A did a whooping 2mins 46sec just factions slower than 911 turbo with an average speed of 110km/h ( if im not wrong )

Pictures will be posted as soon i can have them. It was an experience worth while. And im thankfull to the JPSI management for finally doing something for us common people. Looking foward for more of such events.

Lovely Images there Nitin.

Did you lapped the track too on your KTM? If yes, what kind of time you manage to post?

@NB: IIRC, he posted on his thread that City was the fastest car on the track.

Rachit.K.Dogra · 23rd April 2012, 17:20

Wonderfull pics there!!

Some more details of the event will be really appreciated speacially for the bike's session. How long was the session and what are the Riding Gear requirements plus what all you need to have and carry. eg Racing license or some special insurance.

Please people who have details if they can post it would be really helpfull for us guys to plan for the future events.

Thanks
