    Bangalore guys will be heading down on saturday itself and stay over the night and then attend track fresh on sunday. But thats still to be finalized.

    so drop in your confirmations and we can plan accordingly.

    this is my first time in here so don't have any idea what's a trackday..would definitely like to join you guys though..

    1. how do i contact you guys?
    2. how are we planning to go/come back? I would prefer riding my sweet heart.
    3. accommodation?
    4. planning to buy knee guard and elbow guard. Don't have a biking jacket and pants. Is it ok if I wear a normal jacket and pant with the knee and elbow guards?

    I stay in bangalore but visiting Shillong. Checked up a couple of biking shops where this guy was selling knee and elbow guards for 950 buks (some fox company). pretty firm and looked ok to me. planning to go in for them. if u wanna go in for them, lemme know. I'll also post a pic tomo.

                  1. how do i contact you guys?

                  my number : 9538848463

                  2. how are we planning to go/come back? I would prefer riding my sweet heart.

                  we are riding down with our bikes.

                  3. accommodation?

                  the bookings are yet to be done. will do it tomorrow. so confirm yourself.

                  4. planning to buy knee guard and elbow guard. Don't have a biking jacket and pants. Is it ok if I wear a normal jacket and pant with the knee and elbow guards?

                  it is always best to have a proper protective jacket.
                  only alternative will be a thick abrasion resistant jacket. remember its for your safety.

                            I knew you are coming, but what i mentioned about are the guys in SBKs practising for nationals.

                            If they are riding, then the time will be split up for SBks and Indian bikes. We will get less time for riding.

                            I propose we come up with some sort of running-schedule based on the number of people who finally show up so that it doesn't end up like the last 5 minutes of F1 qualifying. If the SBK guys are also going to be running then we are in for a MESS of biblical proportions....could even be dangerous with so many people out on track.

                            Newbies - you guys will have to be cooperative...please don't adopt the "I'm here to do what I want" attitude because it will simply end up in tragedy. The idea is to keep out of everyone's way and keep an eye out ahead, behind and to the sides at all times. The SBK guys will zoom up on you before you can think of it...not like riding with an SBK on the streets...here they use all the power available to them and the results of a collision can be..well - hospitalizing at best!

                            Anyway - I'll be happy to meet up with you guys on Sat-night for a bite. PM me if you are arriving on Sat and at what time so I can figure something out.
                            He He... i understand. I too had the same fear, but i think the Xbhp crowd will lend ears.

                            @Banglore guys - Some one talk with Guys in the MMSC and tell them that around 15~20 riders are coming in for a track session on 28th. Dont forget to mention many are newbies. This will make the SBK teams to steer clear of practising on 28. Hope it works.

                            @Karthick_R - Dai Dai, arent you supposed to take rest for another month brother ?? Ok,my advise for you is to start 2/3 in noon and reack here before sun sets. Its my kind request.

                                Ok.This might sound stupid but apart from carrying a watch with a stop watch,is there any other way to check what your timing on the track is for a lap ?
