NC should check out the RS on the track. I'm sure with perfect tarmac and cruise control he'll get a FE of more than 15kmpl

Will also beat OD's "ideal condition" figures if I know NC well.

Akshay, maybe you guys should silence some rumours running around the Cedia. Two different people have told me that.

1. Spark plugs running were stock and that pistons on the cedia need replacement.
2. One of the spark plugs bottom got cut and went inside the engine.

I don't know what is the element of truth in these two rumours, but if its not the truth you guys need to stop such news going around.

Rahul, you know how it is. People talk crap all the time. With all the stuff we've heard about your car, Jay's car, and Psycho's car, we could write a novel. I mean, people want to talk, let them. Freedom and all that jazz...

Just wanted to let you guys know since two different set of sources told me this. So was trying to know if there was any element of truth to this.

Tell me about it. Latest round of rumours is that my engine zapped out because my dad filled 87 Oct fuel . My dad says he wants to slap the person who said this. And questioned me why the engine conked off even before he got a chance to fill fuel. That is referring to Bombay. Then once again when the engine broke-down inspite of using ONLY 97 Oct with boosters. I totally get what you are saying. Such people are only sore losers I say. Or trying to pass the blame onto others.

PS: Not that I have heard far too many things about my car except that it was running a 1800 block. What have you heard ?

PS II: I can write a novel about my car alone in the last 10 months. That in itself will sell quite a lot amongst the modders in Bangalore & TBHP.
