hello fellow BHPians

Hello everybody ....

i have been a member of team-bhp from a very long time, but didnt get the time to actively participate in the forums...very sorry for that... I was there at speed-run 2005 ... both the days ... i had come the previous years too ....
Its really nice to see so many of you who are so entusiastic ....
I took the video of da whole event ...got press & VIP pass...so was on da tarmac...
For some of you who must be wondering about my nick ...i m inspired about the stealth fighter Blackbird...which is the fastest & highest flying jet in da world ....

i hope i can keep up with you guyzz in the future forums...

chao...

Hey Blackbird,

Nice to have another lurker join up!

Well, the first thing "blackbird" brings to my mind is ofcourse the CBR1100XX. Also the fastest bike in its time.

BTW, before you start posting, make sure you read all the topics and rules in The Announcements section

Hey Lockheed-Martin Skunkworks SR-71 ........(aka Blackbird), :P

Lol, when i first saw your nick, like Rtech i assumed you were a CBR1100 owner/fan!

Did you know the titanium alloy that the blackbird is made of that houses the fuel is continuously leaking fuel into the atmosphere when the plane is on the ground. It is only when the plane takes off and the titanium reaches higher temperatures that it actually expands and closes off all the pores that were leaking fuel!

It sure is an AMAZING plane.... and so so so long before its time!!

hey rehaan,

thanks for the pic. yeah, thats the first blackbird ad. the rumour grapevine has it that honda had to pull some major strings to get the pics taken, because the sr-71 wasn't really into ad modelling!
thanks again!

cheers
