          @Sajiv - Not sure who that was, must be one of the petronas riders, i'm still waiting for the scans of race 2, i have it for the others

          @Mithun - Yes i was but last minute the team didnt have enough budget for 4 riders so only 2 took part....better luck next time i guess

            The second race was won by Chalermpol Polamai ! Krasait crashed in the fight with Polamai at C9 i guess ! but i don t think he completed the race ! It was amazing to watch the front runners race ! These guys were bloody faster in almost all corners ! And now since they ve got enough data ! The just might touch the 1:41 s next time !

            For me the ultimate race was the Race 2 Underbone , Just fabulous !
            And did anyone capture any jumps at the bridge ? Krasait was flying while others were wheeling over there !

            And Preetham s bike issues ! Joe had said the Race 1 : DNF was due to electrical problems and not suspension Problems !

            And Rajini was awesome , Patient and perfect.

            And again Mr.Dilip has gone missing !

                ^And I was wondering when it became 1:43 when I was actually holding the timing sheet in my hand last evening . Yes its 1:44.6.

I know it takes a lot'a courage and grit to ride a race bike in track. But her entry was like "i have a 600cc and i like to flaunt my ride".
                      I too had the same thing in mind. BTW, if she hadnt come in, she would have been overlapped thrice by the race leader.

                          was a lot of fun watching the race especially when rajini climbed the podium, and i have never seen so much crowd at mmsc before this. now let the pictures do the talking.




                          they had the same gap all through the race

                            "Vivek Pillai (1:53.931 secs) and Deepak (1:54.319 secs) of India on their Honda vehicles as privateers finished 12th and 13th. However, two of their compatriots, Emmanuel Jebraj of Ten 10 Racing and Alisha Abdullah, the lone women in fray and Hongkong's Chui Wai Kwong failed to qualify. However these 3 riders have been allowed to race tomorrow with the condition that they have to return to the pits if they are lapped "

                            From the press release ! This is why she came back in ! 1:55 min was the cutoff i think .
