Got the visor changed and didnt bother much with the styling bits. No point in talking to these morons, they only make sense in their own way.
    Let me see where I can register. Pacer I guess.
    joel: Pacer would be a good option because last time only bikes from this dealers were safely transported without any scarthes

            Just come man. I'll give you some secret tips
            The more time to spend at the track, you get that much better. This is a channel to improve ur skills.

                  Man lots of fun and hands on experience on a track. I wish we had some tracks in northern India too.

                    You might not have done too well last time. You were too new to the track. This time you can get a lot better. So just dont bother with your lap times or try pushing it beyond your limits, ride to improve your riding skills.
                    You cant become a racer over night. Coming to chennai for a track day can be 3-4 times more expensive than just paying 500 bucks and cruising down in a volvo. You actually get some decent track time and the fun factor is always there.

                                Got registered at orion for the R15 race. Bikes will need to be dropped off on 16th morning and the bus to MMSC will leave by 8pm on 17th, Friday. 18th is a track practise by Bike India Editor, Aspi from 10am till 5pm. All in batches of 6 riders.
                                Accomodation will be provided by Yamaha India at a Hotel near the track (Guess its paramount Inn or Coromandel). Food will be provided by will have to paid by riders.
                                All riders must compulsory bring their riding gears. 19th is the race.
                                Also there are two new classes in the race.
                                Group B and Group C.
                                Group B consists of riders who have some prior track experience, but not any team/factory riders. Only private owners of R15.
                                Group C is for pure newbies who have never had hands on before at a track. Prize money and race grids will vary according to the classes.

                                P.S. Also its recommended that owners make necessary arrangements to make sure the bikes are free from damage. Use tapes or packings at crucial places on the bike to ensure the bike is free from exposed damages.

                                Hope this was informative.
