I'm 6ft myself...its not ideal coz you an be a bit cramped..but if you have talent it will not stop you from being successful as a racer.

2.) Can i start this late? have anyone started late like me?

Yes you can start this late, again its not ideal for a full fledged career in racing but ultimately if you are fit and have talent you will be fine. I started later than you

3.) Can any guys help me about riding techniques?

You can learn that at the track from experienced riders or at a race school. Be careful who you take advice from...everyone will be willing to give it...few know what they are talking about.

4.) How often should i practice?

As often as you can...the more the better.

5.)I have plan to participate in T.W.O racing training but got afraid that whether newbie like me will be allowed in that? becoz i saw photos in some expert rider with superbikes.

already answered that one

6.)Which racing suit and gear is cheap?

cramster is affordable and good to start with

7.) Where can i buy the racing gear?

Cramster Gear Co.: Stuff more than enough! - India's first premium bike luggage - Saddlebags, Tankbags and more... ..talk to the owner Keerthy, tell him i refered you

Thanks a lot for great information sir. I think all can understand everything from this. thanks again.

There you go @johnsingam. You possibly cannot get a better offer to start off. Take this offer and all other queries will neatly fall into place in time.
