Hello fellow motorheads!

After getting hooked on to the Team-BHP three years back and spending a lot of time on it everyday, I finally took the plunge and became a member!

I am originally from Chennai and currently residing in Bangalore and working as a software engineer for the past 7 years.

I have surrounded myself with cars as long as I can remember and I am still enthralled by them as I was when I owned my first toy car.
My interest in things that move doesn't just stop with cars and extend to trains and planes as well!

Outside of cars, I love aviation (both military and civilian), trains, photography and books (mostly fiction).
I am also a big fan of formula 1.

I currently drive my dad's Alto K10 and and my Honda Unicorn and planning to buy a premium hatchback in the next few months.

I am thrilled to be a part of Team-BHP and I am hoping to have a wonderful time here!

Welcome to the forum. You'r interest are very similar to mine. Other than I don't follow F1 to closely.

Sr-71 is one of my favorite airplanes. I've seen several in museum all around the world and I've read just about everything ever published.

Here's one specially for you! Duxford, UK

Welcome aboard! Nice to see another F1 fan. Hope to see you in the F1 corner soon. Check the below section for F1 related discussions. It is usually active on race weekends, especially post qualifying and race:

I too have a Unicorn that just completed 9 years.

It is my favourite as well and hoping to see one in real soon!
BTW, have you read the SR71 flight manuals as well?

Thanks zenren! I am already a regular follower of the F1 forum here and now I can participate in it too!
My unicorn is just 5.5 years old and still going strong in spite of the "super awesome" bangalore roads!

You can find all this sort of stuff on the web these days. Just google SR71 manual and you'll be surprised.

Here's one version of the manual:

Happy reading!
