Thanks for quoting Ten10 Racing. We are just a month old at the track and have already helped a lot of racers kick-start their dreams and break the track dominance. There are a lot of talents who are waiting to get a break and leave a mark. I must say, the above mentioned teams, especially RRR are doing an excellent job in highlighting racing.

Yours in Sport,

Joel

very nice topic & some very useful points........

Nice points there!

i don't how in the world had i missed all the action.neways guys the point is our cribbing won't get us a penny.As for the sponcership aspect is concerned that is purely business,nobody ever did and never will invest in a sinking ship,what we have to do is to really show them we exist.Get noticed and we'll be able to do it
@hydroxide through your words it is clearly evident how much you really want the sport to grow,we are sailing in the same boat

As we mentioned 10-10 racing well joel is a member and with the kind of attitude he has i can feel he'll be more than happy to promote new talent

P.s. at a personal level i have had a real hard time convincing my parents to sponser me a trip to kari for a round at the honda make 1 atleast for 1 round of the whole cup,this time i might get lucky.

@all : People who have an in on the racing sight in India like TZ750, Joel will know the tilt towrds four wheels... It is that people crib, it is just that when people step into racing, the sport will burn a hole in you pocket and literally leave a person a popper.. I personally know a racer (bike) who has just sold one of houses to be in the racing scene...
People like Dilip Rogers, Rajani pretham dev mosses, Rohit giri, praveen keerthi all deserve more than what they actually have now.... Dilip after winning the a tour in malaysia came back to find only his car driver to greet him at the air port...
XBHP Racing is a good idea, but the money involved and the time involved is way too high. But however we can probably arrange for track day, will get back to you guys in information trucks....
If an xbhpian is coming down, my house is anyday open at chennai... and i will also accompany you to the track leaving.... let me see how many people would actually be interested in doing this...

In India, a hardcore racer will only become a popper. Unless he is backed by a filthy rich family or something else. A common-man stands no chance and I have spent in Lakhs over the last 1.5yrs in building bikes and being a part of this cycle. In return I've gained lots of experience but nothing much monetary.
it it was for cricket or anyother sport, things would have taken a different turn. Motorsports is that much neglected in the country, esp motorcyle racing. People consider it something "outlawish" and cars are more of a cult. Its too hard to change perceptions and its a matter of time for things to change.

But the wheels are turning my friend and we are the change

Great topic.. will be watching silently for a while......

any delhi guys who are in for some lapping on deserted roads?
