Nothing private about it, siddartha. It was posted on here 8-9 hours ago. Just short notice.
Private would be when it isn't posted about on here.

I agree,Siddartha. Since it was last minute, I myself couldn't switch over from the michelin road tyres to JK racing tyres for the track and hence did just 1 lap.
Why don't all of you who're interested speak to v1p3r,decide on a friday(before the national cship starts) and come over for a weekend of planned track time?

doomsday, we decided on sat night at dinner. so we did not have much planning or notice as well.
No way was it private meet if so why would v1p3r announce it on the thread.

all are welcome.
we went for just some fun no lap times or anything was taken.
I was not even sure if I would drive on the track till the very last.

my car was fun, the suspension handled beautifully so am happy.
also the induction note

next one will TRY to plan and make everyone happy.

It was not a 'private' meet, whatever that means. This was planned out the previous night at Kanua, where some of us met up. That meet ended past midnight, and after that the post was put up. The Kanua meet was also posted in advance on TBHP, so next time do consider coming to a meet.

Yes, it was in single digits. Iceman91 is asking people why they want 48 hours notice, in case you didn't get that. I sent Karthik and Wolf an SMS each, since I didn't have your number. Wolf's returned undelivered, but Karthik knew just before I posted on TBHP.

I've had the privilege of driving on some of the world's best suspension, and I must say your setup is pretty impressive. Street is almost like stock, but on track it's so so so much better. Making me seriously reconsider.

there was not much action happening on t-bhp sat afternoon , and then after that i logged on only on monday , and coming to know that some of you had blast on the track all sunday long , and coming to know that on a monday morning is even worse !
so just voicing my despair, what i meant by "private" is that may be all the regulars just wanted it to be among themselves,

Nothing like that dude. It was short notice for us also. But we finally decided on Saturday night and just went for it.

Also like Amit & Akshay have mentioned, if it were to be private, then we would have never advertised it here. Moreover we did not call/SMS anybody was because we knew that it was a very short notice.

Edit: We are now planning to make it a more regular affair. So next time it is organized everybody will hear about it well in advance.
