Guys, not many of you are interested in off roading, buts its really as much fun as street racing, only thing you try to beef up your torque rather than your bhp. Anyone interested organizing a 4x4 club for dhaka then let me know. We have some amazing 4x4 in town now, like the Cayenne Turbo, LX470's, Range Rovers and ofcourse the Pajero's and Patrols the king of off road and king of the desert. So how about it?

hey snkpkp good thing that you brought this topic up.. infact me and a friend of mine who owns a tea garden in sylhet are planning to host a 4x4 off roading event sometime in December in the tea gardens. We have already outlined the route through the gardens for the meet.
You can check a video of me in my prado in the tea garden last weekend.. Just click on the link below..

great. hope everyone will join. we also will need a tow truck , btw heard about the Prado accident? I just dont get it why ppl try to race thier off road 4x4's (cygnus,pajero,prado etc). I mean X5 and Cayenne turbos are a whole different breed. I dont think its wise to speed with such huge cars in this city, long drive in sylhet road where you can really stay in high speed is fun. you know you don have to brake in 2 seconds hahaha. by the way do you know you can get a supercharger for your prado? It will make it 270bhp from the 163bhp stock, trust me you will LOVE the difference.

you are right sakin , I had the whole thing pre planned and between me, my friend rafi and his brother in law bought 4 Discovery and also registered them recently. No plans to sell them. Amazing cars....a bit wicked in terms of speed and image but still fun.
