I would love to come. I'm very keen this time. Let's see.... If I come, I'll bring along dad's NHC Vtec with the Advans. Dying to see what it does on the track when a ham fisted guy is driving.

I gonna make it this time for sure ! And guys, which car do u you think is better for a first timer on track ?

Swift VDI or SX4 ?

One with lesser weight, greater power and better tyres, I guess

[headers]

The SWIFT Vdi is better on Track than the SX4.

[Mi10]

Hey guys which is better ?

Leaving the car for service after the Track session or before the Track session ?

Was someone able to get into MMSC today? Like somebody said in this thread there was MRF racing for motorcycles going on & I was not allowed inside without a ticket. When I asked for ticket, all of them have been sold. Is this track you guys are refering to or anything else?

Vikram - Somebody gonna get hurt real bad Hope Ranjit does not see this.

Slipstream's DDis was real neat during the last track day.

You would need one after track day anyway.

So guys:

How many of you guys are getting prepared cars for the Track Day?

I know of a specific esteem as well as a Specific FORD 1.6 {with new brakes, new ECU and maybe a new CAM}

Will the track be available on 7th March ? Apparently there is some bike thing going on. Kunju Kumar please confirm with the 'heads'.

Plan to be there as a spectator. Been a long time.

Yeah, agree.

Also, from my limited experience on the track, I felt that it is the suspension that takes more beating than the tyres. The latter is just about money - replace tyres and go on, while the former could screw up your normal driving experience & be tougher to rectify. Especially if your track-car and daily-driver are the same.
