Thanks guys for a great drive. |
Nahi rey uncle , you got me wrong .. I was referring to your car and the others as well in comparison with Rks' supercar (santro with 5j) .. It was meant to be sarcastic .. For better grip in the wet you ought change to neova's .. They are out of this world .. Ask akshay , anup , jk , binoy (who infact said the neova's are 30% more grippy than his brand new es100's) , pawan and vikas .. Quote:

Finally I see that jomz has recovered from his shock of riding shotgun in the elantra .. That mallu I tell you is as insane as his crdi engine is .. Tadu , how about a drive next sunday to nandi hills ?? Car will be back by then from work .. This time though it will give you a run for your money ..
For all those who were unaware , my car might be having either fried piston rings (worst possible case) or a blown headgasket (remember I have two) leading to leakage of oil thus giving out white smoke at anything over 3k .. So guys dont be surprised after seeing the vidoes and the smokey baleno .. Too high in-cylinder compression is the root cause , will be going lower on the compression by this weekend and get the fuelling right .. Though this could still be my last long drive with her she did manage not to disappoint me .. Touched 200 and I didnt have to tow her back home (which i was expecting) .. And she handled like a gem on the ghats .. Though she is atleast 25-30% slower than she was on the pune-mumbai expressway she will be back to good health really soon ..
Once again I would love to thank you all for coming from different parts of the city and making this meet a huge success .. And thanks for the kind words .. Hoping to see you all at more such meets .. And special thanks to psycho for being ON TIME ONCE ..
Just got the CD from lukeskywalker and anup , shall be dropping it off at akshay's place once I am done with a few checkup's at the hospital .. The video's are awesome I tell you ..
