Hello!

Hello, I am Achint.
Am a fourth year engineering student at Delhi College of Engineering, although my major is in Electronics & Communications I do have a pronounced interest in cars.
A few of us at college tried our hand at building India's first solar car.

Anyways I drive an almost completely broken down Zen (It was handed down as that!), but we recently bought a Scorpio mHawk Vlx.
In fact, T-BHP played a huge role in the decision!

I have been around here for over 6 months, but was never able to stop putting registration off! Now that I have managed it, I hope to be a regular contributor.
I have had loads of experiences in my Scorpio (a few scary ones too!), and I would love to share them here!
I know its stretching long, but I feel really proud to be part of this community where people realize the importance of road ethics.
Hope to see you guys around!
Cya!

Welcome aboard, Achint. I gotta tell you : that is one heck of a handle. Was the Scorpio an influence?

How about some work in progress pictures & report? We'd love to see some.

Nice choice. It's got a gem of an engine. I only hope the vlx doesn't have those annoying voice prompts!

We'd appreciate your stopping by our board rules just once for familiarisation. See ya over on some interesting thread.

Hey GTO!

I'll post the completed pics of the solar car soon, I left the project, but it was completed and we now have a bright red solar car in our college!

The vlx does come with the annoying voice prompts :(.
I just got back from a trip to punjab (will post pics soon), drove 1200-1400 km over 3 days!

I had read the rules before joining!

Thanks a lot for the welcome!
Bbye!
