Who am I?

Rtech · 7th April 2004, 14:49

25 years old, and like all the other's out here at Team BHP, I guess you can call me a petrol-head too. Don't really know where I got it from though as i'm the only one in the family who lives for all things automotive! guess i was dropped on the head one too many times!

Anyways, I was lucky enough to get a chance to try my luck at racing. Did a season of F2000, also working for the team at the same time, preparing the cars we drove, so it was the cheapest way to race.

From there i wrote a couple of articals, one in overdrive and short ones in autocarIndia. Am now working towards the growth of motorsport in the country, organising everything from karting championships to National Rally championships and officiating at events all over. So, anyone needs any help or guidance on how to get started or organise events, just buzz me.

Am currently car-less (the Family Skoda don't really count as my car) and just got my bike for company. However, looking out for a project car as we speak...!

p.s. tnx to RG and the site name on his plates at the drag...I'm sure the viewership of this site must've doubled after that, what say!

We have a professional racer on board! Good to have you as part of the team-bhp family, Rtech. Over at our previous board - FormulaIndia - we had another pro-racer with us..Pranav Jairam. He drove a turbocharged lancer, but havent heard too much from him since we moved over to team-bhp.
