Chennai Team-BHP Meets

It's one big long carpark!

Anyway, even though I do want to take a second look (I forgot to check out the i20), we are at home... waiting...

(the lady concerned is in the labour ward, but things are progressing slowly....)

Thanks

At least I'm only a step-grandfather.

Maybe it's time to buy that Pete's box, put a spoiler on the back of the Swift, paint flames down the side and pretend to be 19 again!

Seriously, though, the one thing at the show (apart from the Honda Accord) that caught my attention is being very possibly worth while was the K&N air filter.

Ah it was ok , managed to have a look at the Indica vista, i20, Jetta and the Xylo all of which I was too lazy to walk into the showrooms to look at

madan80 · 19th January 2009, 16:51

i wantd to go to the K&N stall but missd that. i just wish Mitsubishi, tata and the other marquees had made their presence felt.

@nick- thanks for the outlander picture!

The 2009 National Racing Championship starts with the first round in Chennai from the 13th-15th feb.
I propose a meet on the 15th at the track. There are gonna be Superbike races, Super saloon races and the usual formula swift/Chevrolet races.

The race schedule for the weekend should be available by 10th or so. And we could plan accordingly.

neoranjit · 3rd February 2009, 03:43

supremeBaleno · 4th February 2009, 10:08

Sounds good. Should be there 99%.
