drag racing seems to be happening every where in the country except in bangalore and its ironic that the bangalore boys make up the biggest out siders group in those cities and win 99% of the events. looks like the politicians in bangalore seem hell bent on destroying everything that bangalore was good at which includes a night life. time to show them finger. by the way whats happening about a drag/speed run in bangalore , also how much would it cost to aquire and build a 1km stretch of tarmac on a piece land on the outskirts of bangalore ? just for information types.

Cyrus,

Glad to see an active interest in asking for public suggestions and making the improvements.

Do pay extra attention to making the improvements translate from in theory/on paper -- to the actual event well. Thats where a lot of things can fall through the gaps.

Heres another (3 yr old) thread that has a few suggestions and opinions.
