Re: Kolkata Meet April 2011

What a meet !!
Massive number of cars, "surprise" guest aka Razor, 2 other last minute guests who didnt stay till lunch aka 1100D and Shuvd, lots of chicken and a lovely drive, which ended too fast.

Here are some pics taken by my brother, Romit, the guy with the Polo 1.2 Highline.

Oye hoye! Thanku so much!

This was by far the largest tbhp meet recorded in terms of turnout. About 20 cars, and 26 members. Lots of new faces to meet, lots of gupshup. Lets hope the camaraderie continues.

Some pics:

Planet driving into the venue. I still fail to understand why a guy who never does 80kmph needs 195/65R14 Hankook RS-2s! Give them to me dude

The first father-son turnout in any Kolkata tbhp meet. Scuderiamania and his dad Soum.

correction: they are 195-60- R14 Hankook Ventus R-S2.

I am not giving them to you dude - no way i have waited a lot for new tyres and for these, thanks to Ishan tyrewala bhagwan and nitrous for giving a good feedback about these tyres and to a very special person C for helping me find these tyres. they are very precious

for you kind information, i don't drive fast, i don't do highway drives and i try and stick to 60-80KPH speed range - but sill they are mine and i am not giving them to you

Poor 1600cc Fiat,poor RS-2. Really feel for Sonja, especially on an expressway with 100kph limit. But then we can take this as a lesson in self control.

Carry on.

I guess he got the RS-2 because the original RS is Red-Sonja (RS-1 - say)
