High points:

South India's first Exotic Car Club

The launch of the club will be on Saturday, the 31st of March.

We then plan to have a friendly drag-race with no serious competition.

There are no membership-charges or fees. But it's based only on invitation.

The club intends to get like minded car owners together and take it to the next level.

We plan to do three to four track events in a year, get drivers from Europe and offer special courses on the track.

We have confirmed all the cars (below) as participants and their owners as members for now and not charging any entrance-fee for the track, The cars that will be seen are:

- Ferrari 458 Italia
- Lamborghini Gallardo LP 560-4
- Audi R8 V10
- Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder
- Couple of Audi R8 V8s
- BMW //M cars
- Mercedes Benz AMG cars and SL (500 and 600)
- Jaguar XK-R
- Jaguar XF-R
- Rolls Royces
- Bentleys, and many more

Note From Team-BHP Support Team: Thread moved from Assembly Line to Supercars & Imports in India section. Thanks for sharing!

Great move, looking forward to the event.

Is this event open to public or is it only through Invitation ?

If open to public is there are entry fee or is it Free ?

If through invitation, how do one get a Invitation ?

Wishing to see more cars/ members adding to this club.

Scorcher · 23rd March 2012, 17:28

Congrats M,

So is this the Supercar event which was rumored to be held this year or there is a big one coming later?

manishasrani · 23rd March 2012, 20:43

Can see the Black Gallardo Spyder in one corner

I do hope this keeps the rich racing history of Madras alive! The DBS Volante owner in Bangalore had spoken earlier to me and Manish, of his many experiences on the track decades ago.

anekho · 24th March 2012, 02:12

Excellent stuff, will be a treat to see these beauties at one of the events!

Will there be drives through the city like the ones that happen in Bombay?

Today's DC had an advt in the 1st page of Chennai Chronicle about the track day on 1-April-2012 for the exotic beauties, with the headline being about a Ferrari racing a Lamborghini. Sounds interesting and might come down to the track.
