I believe it is, as per Doc's assertion, who is the organiser

[himanshugoswami]

great news lets do a Team BHP meet and attend the drag together.

any idea where to get tickets for the audience?

and do they have a category for SUVs?

[IronWolf]

After a long time a Drag event down south !!

How many km is Blr - Hyd and how are the roads?

[DKG]

From what I gathered they have classes upto 800cc, 1400cc, 2000cc and open class which I think means the imported cars. There's stock and modified in each of those categories too. He did mention something for superbikes too. Do call him direct if you have specific enquiries

@Ironwolf Blr-Hyd is about 540kms approx, a comfy drive.

This is good.Atlast we have a Motorsport event of somekind in Hyderabad.
I hope it rakes in national interest too with a media hype.
Im thinking of participating in 2000cc category with my Mitsubishi Cedia.

Go for it Ram. Lets hope the Hyderabad chapter of TeamBHP is well represented on this day. Now where are Avi (mobike008), Naveen, Mahesh (Kutlee) and the others who are always seen revving away to glory during the Drive meets?

As mentioned earlier by Himanshu, lets have a meet fixed for those days. I, for one am going to enjoy myself in the stands with a whole load of Popcorn.

[watashi75]

@suren181, I think mobike008 will also be out of station during that time.

[himanshugoswami]

Maybe avi can lend one of us(me? ) his Peted vivia CRDI for some TLC at the Drag

what say Avi?

EDIT: we are discussing a drag and this is my post no. 911 ..... hope someone form Porsche is reading and takes this to be a sign from the heavens

[zen91]

This is great news!!Motorsport in Hyderabad calls for a participation for all the automobile entusiasts.

I am for sure going to be a part of this event and I guess all Team Bhpian are going to be there in full strength.

[kutlee]

Good luck Hillram. Lets find out how Japs make cars. Change the tyres please ..please... I can lend you my ractive air filter for free if you can find the pipes...

[DKG]

Lets all make the event a grand success through either participation or attendance. That way it will encourage the organisers to do more and do stuff like this annually.

Also with GMR supporting you have a high profile sponsor and if the event is a big success that spells a bright future for Hyd motorsports

[hillram]

No Guys...I would like to go with Stock and show the RAW power
