Friends,

There was a small article in the Indian Express supplement today. It said Narain Karthikeyan was at the Madras Motor Sports Club event at the Sriperumbudur track recently testing a Lamborghini Murcielago, Audi R8, BMW 530D among other cars...

Can someone give more information on the event? And a good picture is equal to a thousand words...

It was yesterday on the track, the bentley dealer informed me, quiet affair

@mlcarrera - thanks for the piece of information, was it a promotional event showcasing cars from the Volkswagen group or a car enthusiasts meet?

by the way, saw the new black Phantom in town just 20 mins back. The evening darkness complements the car 200% and I'm sure its an EWB....

My wife was stunned as this was the first time she was seeing a Phantom.

Spotted A Black Q7 today in OMR driven by "Gautham Vasudev Menon". Surprisingly the car had plain glasses.
