Few more shots from my side, hope you guys will like them..
As most of the guys decided to move ahead, I thought why not click some pics of my new steed, I think this is when n_aditya saw us.

Seems you guys had a good ride. Nice to see the number of turnouts.

Also, first time seeing such a queue at Nandi for getting the ticket. Is it usual? Never seen before. Probably early morning crowd waiting for getting the view of sun rise?

No info on this car Raj. But it was a damn quick one all right. Looked like it was running rich as black smoke was spewing from the pipe everytime he shifted at the redline.

Just after the toll gate on the BIAL stretch we both took off parallel to each other and the road ahead was empty. The baby ninja was faster to the tonne. That said the car was quick too. The ninja hits the 100kmph mark in around 7 seconds so i am guessing he was a second or two behind me.

A black smoke from a turbo petrol? Never seen a TC petrol car with black smoke even if running rich or may be he has changed the petrol engine to a diesel one .

Good to see so many BHP'ians together . Looks like people had a gala time out there . Can somebody tag the photos of the BHPians . Seems like every B'lore BHPian is a good photographer in itself , great clicks guys !!

All I could recognize was Zoomsun in the red T-shirt as he was a part of the Pune meet .

Raj, I wonder if you can even remotely say I could keep up if you even pushed the throttle half way through. The Magnum is one mean machine, a Sleeper for sure.

I've seen another turbo charged petrol car which used to cough black smoke... similar to this one, but this was super quick.
