Fastest lap @ Speedzone
Like any other software company, we had the team outing today ( my actual team is very small here.. but I come under a bigger team within the company ) which was karting at speedzone followed by dinner.
I’m amazed by the quality of SpeedZone. The track is really big and the karts have 13 horsepower engines instead of the 7 horsepower ones that you find elsewhere. Since the karts were powerful, it did not matter if I raced with a person who was 30kg’s lighter them I am .Surprisingly I made it to the finals and I managed to come 1st along with the best lap of the evening.
Apparently the fastest lap ever set at this track was 58 seconds and I managed a 61 second best-lap. I think I’ll go there again this weekend just to break the speed record there.
If you are from PESIT/PPR you’ll find this pic of Vijayan interesting. He races pretty well too 🙂
How are the safety measures there ? helmets elbow/knee pads /jackets ?
Awesome pic dude
Many thanks!
awesome!
You are going to emulate M S Satyu . Your photos have a class of their own. Brilliant anna!
Now , the other guys must have been really really slow.:-) . g,d & r.
ROFL, I’ll second that hehe
g,d & r as well.
I beat Kalyan once , I dont whether he’s gotten better or the general standards have been lowered.
Re: awesome!
ur talking abt director M S Satyu.
Or Speedzone resets it’s fastest lap times everynight… 😉
Oh, you had a lap top. Congrats!

incredible… thanx for the pic…
must be awesome to have him in the group, eh?
I think I’ll go there again this weekend just to break the speed record there.
We ( and myself) were planning to go there this Saturday. What time are you planning to go there? If the timings match, we can probably meet up. We were planning somewhere around noon.
hehe when I said I could race with people who were 30KG’s under my weight.. I was talking about you.
We should race here.. the only reason you won was coz you were lighter and those 7HP engines.. cannot pull me fast enough
Only helmet. I don’t think we shall ever see the whole set here in bangalore 🙁
Heh yeah.. Now he sits in my cube as there is no space in office.. so we end up having these long chats about MS, people , Life and everything else 🙂
Sat will be too crowded.. I was planning on friday.. but let me see.. I will leave you a message when I confirm with others about the timing.
We still have not raced … we were supposed to go there like 3 months ago … remember? 😐
The place I went to while in Delhi(someplace on the way to Ghaziabad)… used to provide Helmets and Elbow Pads… but they make you sign a declaration that they won’t be liable for any accidents/injuries/death etc.
(I wonder if such a declaration will also void any accident/life insurance policies that you may have.)
While most of the crowd is pretty cool… at times we have these morons who intentionally crash into you.
The karts in UAE were much better(safer) looking than the ones in Delhi… and they provided a lot of gear too… unfortunately couldn’t get to ride them as I was part of a HUGE group visiting a water theme park. 🙁
kallu, how abt carrying over our sport rivalry from the pool table to the track? 😉 I’ll come a bit drunk so that there’s a close competition 😛
ps: BTW, have you found your new rival in pool?
yes yes.. will ping you offline.. you and me need to settle the race 😉
You bet. I’ll give you a call before we go.
and thanks to you.. I don’t play pool anymore.. forget catching someone to play at night.. I don’t even find people in office anymore
say kalyan… what about a race between us???
Good driving is also about driving safe :p
and yeah.. we can settle it at the karting place 😉
chemistry, finance, C++ and go-karting??? what a combo man! I was at PPR and loved the course and The God of course….any idea where he is right now?
