Lucky NCR guys!

Will appreciate if anyone can take some snaps & post it here....!

Centerstage Mall has big signs saying "No camera". Will try some low quality pics by phonecam.
If someone has a pocket digicam, its easy to smuggle in.

Had to shoot ISO 1600/800(underexposed, so one is almost ISO 3200) so please excuse the noise.

wow, great shot, good job man, car looks just too good.

Nice shots, tanveer. The car looks simply awesome, especially from the top.

A question I always had was - why are the rims so small and tyres so thick ?

prabuddhadg · 6th January 2007, 09:24

Very nice shots, Tanveer. I visited your smugmug album. The Mustangs are just fabulous. Nice shot angle.

To handle the extreme Aerodynamic & G-forces exerted on the car especially on high speeds. With the kind of downforce these cars generate coupled to the high-speeds the load factors are huge & hence the tyres have to be able to withstand the pressure while giving great grip & stability.

Here are a few pics from my side.

but why is this car coming ?What is the purpose?
Anyway good to see it in India

tsk1979 · 6th January 2007, 21:23

The car had a flat tyre. Original tyres were unaffordable, so they thought they will get real looking fakes from India.

There are 2-3 MGF's in Gurgaon but I think this one is going to be in the Metropolitan which is the one with the PVR & JBL store. Also bang opposite DT.
