So, we could hit Muscat at around 12.30 - 1 pm.

Great! I'll be there.

Please do add me to the list.

At what time are you guys planning to leave the city and from where?
start from any common location??

-Ajay

Starting from a common location won't work as all of us start from different parts of the city. We can meet just after Maduravoyal if we want to reach the track together.

Yes, was a nice meeting tbhp-ians. Took loads of snaps, incuding that of the Jaguar - looked menacing. Will try to post from home tonight.

@John, was nice meeting you after a looong time.

Rahulkool · 21st June 2010, 13:33

Hey Guys! I'm new to this forum. Just came across this thread and eager to join a meet.
Have we planned anything in near future so that I can try to squeeze in? Will be checking this thread quite often from now on. Thx.

Here come the snaps.

1) One of the Esteems at the curve before the main straight. Quite some drivers seemed to have issues negotiating this curve.

2) Another Esteem

3) Yet another one.

4) The media going up to the winner (Mr.Bollisetti - forgot his first name).

5) The single-seaters getting ready for the action

6) The winner posing on the bonnet for the media.

7) Shooting the roll-cage ?

8) A nice sleek black beauty with slicks. Was parked near the podium.

9) The single-seaters lining up for the fun to start.

10) Some lead this guy has over the others.

More snaps to follow.

supremeBaleno · 23rd June 2010, 20:21

11) The single-seaters taking the winding curves. The racket they make is awesome.

12) Slowing down to take the curve after the main straight - can see the brake-lights light up.

13) Other beauties lined up.

14) This guy spun around completely at the start of the main straight. Later moved to the side of the track.

15) Another spin off.

16) A white beauty

17) The VW Jetta as the safety car.

18) The podium with another Jetta parked near it.

19) The trophies await the winners.

20) The saloons lining up. Except for a Zen (e-Zen?), all were Esteems I think. Why not other cars to add some spice to the race ?

EDIT : Corrected now, Riju.

21) The 2nd Saloon race kicks off. The Zen had some issues and did not complete the race IIRC.

22) This Esteem (Bollisetti) had such a huge lead over the others that the race was kinda boring.

23) Winners of the 1st Saloon race - 2nd and 3rd place winners are veterans. The winner's tuner is the guy in forefront. Chief guest (in white) is the MP of A&N - forgot the name.

24) Winners of the 2nd Saloon race - only the 2nd and 3rd place winners change.

25) Winners of the 1st single-seater race, with the winner's tuner (2 actually) wearing black Tees.

26) Winners of the 2nd single-seater race.

27) The Volvo XC90 SUV at the parking lot.

28) The emblem, now owned by an Indian company.
