Oops sorry guys. I just came back from lunch and saw my post. The thing is when I did a preview of the post I saw the images displayed properly. So I posted confidently and went out.

Mods: Can you please tell me whats wrong with the attachement. I have resized the size as required and referred in the post http://www.team-bhp.com/forum/announ...-team-bhp.html


2the max - Is this your Swift?

[ElantraGT]

Guys I am trying to post the pictures again in this thread.

Its great to meet you all. I had the privileage to meet a few of the chennai TBHP members but was not able to interact with most of the bangalore guys.

@ raj barcode - I saw a Debadged Elantra in the pits and I hope it belongs top you. Thats a neatly maintained elantra and you have inspired me to go for a debadged setup (most of logos were vandalised anyway )

Back to the P&P session. I started from home at 10:40 and was hoping to meet Riju, Parakeath and Praveen(Mi10) on the way, but was not able to meet the group. I picked up my friend just after poonamalle and continued my drive all the way to Irukatukottai in my puny little Zen. Here a picture fo my Zen.



There have been a lot of talks going on about the race esteems, here is a pic of the one without the bonnet playing catch up with another modded esteem.



Now the following pictures are taken from the C block tower (Media tower) from the 2nd floor. I tried to zoom all the way to the back of the track and some of the photos were shot with 48X maginification. Please excuse for the grainy pics.

Here is the photos of action happening on track
Riju in action:


Esteem from bangalore (TBHPian please identify your self. Your lines were great towards the last few laps)


Here is a OHC in action:


The Skoda Octavia was burning the rubbers on track.


Arjuns Corsa:


Silver SX4 - (Tbhpian please identify yoursel)


Some more snaps:









Nikhil, blazing his way around the track :





Maneak 800 was screaming and he was pushing the car to its limits:



Praveen (Mi10) being cautious during the initial 5 laps:




Now for spinouts:





Now for breakdown snap of Esteem: I believe the vehicle belongs to Esteem_lover. please correct me if I am wrong




Due to personal commitments i had to reach chennai by 4:30, so me and my friend started at 3 PM from the tracks.

Now some of the things that I missed on track

1. I didnot take my ride on the track (wifey reads TBHP and she knew the P&P happening on track so was not able to bluff around)
2. Didnt go on trakcs with any of the TBHPian as everyone were trying to familiarize with the track settings
3. Didnt get a chance to see the Mistress in action (Nitrous do you have any video of the mistress ripping the tarmac)
4. Most of all I missed the Photo shoot
5. Missed the next race day announcement. Guys can any one share that info please.

[GreaseMonk]

Yay! Finally a picture of me doing something other than sitting in the pits. Thanks ElantraGT.

Yep, the first Fiesta is mine. Thanks. I think I had an expression similar to your wife's inside my helmet.

This Skoda was doing some pretty good laps though it was never timed. I see what appears to be a silver Fiesta in one of the pics, though I don't remember seeing one that day. The last pic is my car. I got two pics now. Yay.

Goutham I didnt have the oppertunity to meet you in person, but next time when you come for the meet i will make it a point to meet you. I would say that the way you were making your vehicle hold the line should have taken the toll on your tyres for sure. I always had fun watching your car shooting out of the last turn with your tyres begging to be released from the stress the vehicle exerts. Great driving buddy.

GreaseMonk, can you please identify your photo so that I can find out your car. Yourt profile says that you own a fiesta and the one photo of Fiesta that I posted was that of Gilead.

Here is two more pictures of your car buddy. Do PM me your email ID I will send the uneditted high resolution pictures of your car.

The greenish-grey fiesta is mine. I was parked in one of the last few stalls in the pit lane since I had arrived during the motorcycle session in the morning and they didnt want a car in the first few stalls. Needless to say, by the time the car session had begun I was pretty pooped and ended up just sitting in the pits when not on the track instead of mingling with fellow BHP-ians.

GreaseMonk, can you please identify your photo so that I can find out your car. Yourt profile says that you own a fiesta and the one photo of Fiesta that I posted was that of Gilead.

Elantra, I am in the 14th photo from the top with 3 cars in the foreground: Manek's 800, a beige OHC and my greenish-grey Fiesta.

@neoranjit: brilliant pictures!! love the pic of my car! :-)
@elantragt: lovely pics! the 14th pic especially.

It was nice seeing you after a long time, Hari.
I was helping out a few BHPians who were first timers on the track. So, I got onto the track only after 3.

Once I have 10K on the odo and the 2nd service done, no more babying around. Did anyone notice a white Octavia zipping around the track? It belonged to a friend of mine (not on team-bhp) and I hope it was not doing 'nutty' stuff.

Nope, but I do have a video. I'll upload it shortly.
White Octy with TN plates ?

Its not foolishness, its sheer madness
I did it 3 times.

Thanks Hari, you just made my day.

@ Venom_rider (Goutham) Thanks a bunch for the pics. You have the "not too keen to drive photo ?" If yes please upload.

[ElantraGT]

Here is the second set of photos :

GreaseMonk, Here is something to please you







Can anyone tell me whose lancer is this? the integrated head lights on the bumper is a great Mod. If I am not wrong another bhpian Pramod has done the same mod in kerala.



Jazz jazzing around the track with some slow laps and some feverish laps towards the middle of the session



2themax swift entering the pit lane



800 giving a run for the money to octavia - Can you beleive that manek overtook octavia in the strait stretch (Start line) . I was dumb struck and I am sure the person driving the Octavia would have seen the iny miny 800 in his rear view mirror and never bothered about it



Some great driving by Nikhil. Buddy your car was holding the line with lot of stress and I was watching you on the Anands bend and you were amazing trying to maintain the balance between the man and the machine.





Another Lancer in action



Matis giving a chase to Lancer, City and Jazz. beleive me guys matiz really earned its reputation when it was blasting away to glory on the curves with some three wheel driving.. HE HE HE




Some pictures of Sathees Fiesta. Buddy I was hoping that your exhaust note would roar, but your car was really silent when you drove by.





Jassi - Your santros exhast was awesome. I tried to record your cars exhaust note but the recording messed up big time. anyway here is a couple of snaps of your car. (sorry for the blurred images)





On a lighter note - A snap of venom rider scaring away Getz to the pit lane



Esteem lover putting his car to the test and literally driving pedal on the metal



Jaguar - wow the exhaust was awesome and I can see that the vehicle was holdings its line to the core and in the straits I can hear the engine begging to be revved. Thats a great car to watch in the tracks.



Swift takes the corner with some great spirits.



See the way the OHC is being pushed to the limits. the second picture shows how the OHC comes close to overtaking Grease Monks fiesta in a matter of 3 turns.






Praveens Swift in action
