Happy 4th Birthday, Team-BHP!

GTO · 14th February 2008, 00:00

A very very Happy 4th Birthday to Team-BHP! This is always an important day for us, but today is far more momentous than the last. What better time than the 14th of February, a day of love, to launch the new face of Team-BHP (http://www.team-bhp.com/web).

The last 4 years have been a time of fantastic evolution for our community, with continuously improving content, features and support. The only one thing that has remained consistent, and shall always stay so, is our philosophy of hosting absolutely honest and unbiased information on Indian cars. We are undoubtedly the only resource on the Indian automotive scene that calls a spade a spade! From a forum of just 12 active members to what is now India’s largest automotive community, and one that burns only 100 octane posts, Team-BHP has gone on to become a way of life to each one of us. With time, the enthusiasm only grows, the focus only gets sharper and the spirit only more indomitable.

Team-BHP/Web is built around the forum, which will always be the center of this community. In fact, forum links are at the core of our new home page. The new portal offers the most crucial information in the simplest way possible; an uncluttered look is what we worked hard toward. Thus, we have intentionally avoided all the nonsense flash and jazz, instead opting for a straight-forward look where the focus is on content. And content only. For instance, have a look at the concise ownership reviews; they will tell you everything you need to know about a particular car.

Thank you for sticking it out with Team-BHP, dear BHPian. Here too is a commitment from us to intensify our efforts and consistently push the envelope. When we have the power of 20,000 BHPians, must there be any limitations? I can assure you that this is only the beginning. Make sure you buckle up, coz this is going to be one hell of a high speed drive!

We dreamt, we toiled and we achieved. I ask you just a very simple question: ARE WE REDLINING THE INDIAN CAR SCENE?

This sketch was penned together by me and Rtech, one evening after work in my office cabin. Needless to say, he played a vital role all through the development of Team-BHP/Web. One area that we never really agreed on was the location of "Hot Threads" on the home page. He wanted it in the center, while I preferred having it on the right hand side of the page. Thats how the design was finalised too. On the 24th of December, I moved it to the center....just like Rt wanted it.

We have come a long way, made good friends, driven and got better cars, track days, single malts and more.

If only one person was with us today, he put a lot into the "web"
