"What are the chances of me winning, flying to Malaysia and driving a formula car on the Sepang circuit" - you ask?

Well, a BHPian Narayan won an earlier round of the contest! Yep, that's him getting used to the sequential gearbox:


Narayan's experience : link


And GTO too was invited to participate a few years back. You guessed it, that's him getting a push off the line:

If that's sparked some optimism in you, here's what you need to do to participate:

• Answer simple Multiple Choice Questions (get 2 answers right in shortest duration) - LINK
< or >
• Write about the Best Drive of your Life (could be 5 - 500 words, 1 - 10 photos posted on your blog or facebook notes section) - LINK

- The top 10 will then go through a short telephonic interview round.
- You must be 21 years of age and hold a valid passport & driver's license.
- If all goes well, you'll be flying to Malaysia next month (September 2013).

But hurry... the contest closes on Monday 5th August, 2013.
