        Dude don't go and say things like that to me i just might do it, after all you are talking about a guy who bunked his semester exam so that he could get his bike from the SVC!!
        I'm too intelligent to the unintended, and too dumb for the obvious.

                • XBHP TRACK DAY

                  Event Date: 18th of December.



                  Confirmed List
                  1. Myself
                  2. Sajiv
                  3. GP_Freak
                  4. Prativ
                  5. Insidious.
                  6. Camille.
                  7. Anant (My Support Personnel lol!!)
                  8.Underfime.

                  The only reason for the track day being help during the weekday is because we will be getting one whole day (2sessions) no questions asked.

                  My number: +919789033600
                  TIME: Sooner the better in the morning.... session ends in the evening...



                  SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR THE TRACK DAY / RIDER BRIEFING



                  These are a set of instructions that should be followed during the event to avoid unnecessary confusions at the venue. These are NOT rules being imposed on anyone. These are instructions given to the riders for their safety.
                  1. Everyone should be wearing a riding jacket with elbow and shoulder protectors. A minimum of denim jackets with elbow sliders worn on them.
                  2. Gloves are mandatory for any rider planning to ride on the tracks.
                  3. Shoes which cover the ankle must be used. Snickers are not entertained.
                  4. Use of a knee and shin slider or a knee guard is recommended.
                  5. The visor of the helmet should always be closed when riding on the track.
                  6. Everyone should go around the tracks only in the clockwise direction (Even in the pits) to avoid confusion and any mishaps.
                  7. If a person is willing to come into the pits, he should sit up raise one of his hands after exiting the final corner. This is to indicate the rider behind of your intentions.
                  8. When a rider enters the race track from the pits, he is to look behind (at the entry of c1) and then enter the track after everyone is gone.
                  9. Hooliganism will not be entertained at any point of time. Remember we are not going there to race, but to know about track riding.
                  10. If you have any experts on your tail (e.g.: Killer, Joel) try to give way and learn their lines by observing them.
                  11. Overtaking is to be done in proper racing style to avoid any accidents, i.e. an overtaking maneuver is to be carried out strictly on the racing line to avoid collision. This clearly explains that one can overtake if the rider in front fails to apex a corner.
                  12. Borrowing bikes is allowed only on mutual agreement. Under a condition”YOU BREAK IT, YOU FIX IT”.
                  13. Photographers can walk around the track with proper footwear. (keep a look out for snakes. I remember having eye contact with one for three consecutive laps at the chicane before the bridge.)
                  14. If a rider finds an oil leak anywhere, try to keep a distance from those patches and avoid sudden braking or acceleration when on them. (Mostly you fill find saw dust already spread on it, so it won’t be difficult to spot them).
                  15. I would require all the riders to post their contact number and emergency contact details. (Emergency contact details will also include: Home phone number, Parent/Guardian’s name and relation. People can also PM me these details if they want these to be private).
                  16. Once the red flag is out at the start line, everyone is to make an orderly entry into the pits.

                  * The emergency contact details is mandatory for every rider below the age of 19.

                        Serrupu.... I dun care if you are in bed with Beyonce or you are sick as a dog i want you to be there (Tokyo drift dialogue altered, Even I am excited about this event). So you dun have a choice my friend....

                        @ GP : Mistake noted and corrected.....

                        @ All :
                        This is a very sad state for the sport.... In a nation that prioritizes cricket infront of Formula 1, the chance of a sport like this coming to the limelight is really really less.....

                        No wonder people like Dilip, Preetham, Jeba, Rohit Giri and Rajani struggled so hard in this arena and are still not concidered sports icons of the country, I cannot expect anything better I guess.... People will still keep supporting Leander Peas and Sachin Tendulkar and never recognise the hardwork going into this sport....

                        All we have in us is the love towards Two sheelers and the joy of riding them.... I wanted a bit more responce from a place like XBHP... Too bad that even mods/admins did not take initiative to promote this event.... But thats ok.... We will still have a sucessfull event....

                        Anyways...
                        THIS MESSAGE GOES TO ALL OUT THERE.... IF YOU ARE COMING TO CHENNAI ON THE 18TH OF DECEMBER, YOU KNOW WHERE TO FIND US....

Do you really want to be slogging it off on track, sweating, and learning and leaning? Or would it rather be internship, where you're comfortable? :P Tch tch.

                          @wonderboy_tm:
                          Ah, well, the community is a collective, and there are members from all over the country. I guess since the majority are not going to be able to participate, there hasn't been much of a promotion?
                          Besides, if we start having track days like the one coming up much more often, then we're going to stir things up in here. So yeah, I think we'll get somewhere with this.

                          • Oh, just to refresh everyone's memories, and to let the new ones know. A map of the MMSC race track. Voila!

                            I just found out something about a Kingmaker's Corner and a G's court with respect to the MMSC. What's all that about? Anyone know?
