    @sheelpriye -During the 600cc superbike (super-sport)races around the chennai track, the avg laptime is a 1min 55 secs. So thats some math to consider to understand how quick my bike was.
    TVS racing did an awesome job by breaking the 2 mins barrier during race 2 by 0.15 secs. Jagan did an awesome job for TVS.
    Our strategy during the race was to just pull away from pack for the first 2-3 laps and just maintain the lead without abusing the engine anymore. The engine was also detuned over the practise session (while we clocked 1:58) to keep things under good control.
    I'm delighted that I could hold the candle to new laptimes of an indian bike in this country. Group B class has seen new standards and all the teams are bloody fast now over the 2009 season.

      Good Work

      Good Work Mate. Just keep digging further to improve. Just a small clue ... have a close look at the old Pacer 2-stroke Yamahas. There are also trye's available form a manufacturer called V-Rubber.

          Thanks. Yes we have tried v-rubber. They dont hold up anymore on our bike. We have tried Dunlop, FDR and V-rubber too.

                        ^This is our Group B race bike. Not a street legal machine in any sense.
                        Adjudged as the fastest Indian motorcycle around the track and the fastest R15 ever built.

                          that's a great looking bike. Is the bike using a drum brake at the rear?
