I believe there is a auto show happening in CTC (Chennai Trade Centre) this weekend (25 & 26 Aug 2018). Am sure it'll not be anything "that" great, but there could be something interesting.

Am planning to go for this, on Saturday - anyone else planning it as well? Am more keen on finding any good sale on riding gears - not sure any of them are participating.

Entry fee is just Rs. 40/- as I read.

What's the distance from Chennai - 120 odd kms??

I remember visiting this some years ago, you're right. It was nothing great. But as an enthusiast it was still fun and a nice way to spend half a day.

Yes, thereabouts.

It's seriously a damp show. Please don't waste your time on this.

When I got transferred to Chennai in August last year, the first event I attended was this very Auto Expo organized by the Hindu group. Being a Delhiite and having attended the Auto Expo in Delhi (and now in Gr. Noida) for all these years, I was expecting this one to be similar, even if not on the same scale. However, I must say I was a bit disappointed with it.
