Mohali Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP) Inder Mohan Singh Bhatti inaugurated the final rounds of the event at the GMADA grounds in Phase 8. After the inauguration ceremony, A2B stunt riders put up a spectacular show. The venue witnessed a huge rush of spectators as competitors zoomed their bikes and four-wheelers on the track
Gulpreet Aulakh, a patron of the Old Yadvindrians Association (OYA), and founder of the Team Chandigarh Adventure Sports (TCAS), said the heavy rain during the day made the track tricky and faster. “The driving skills of the competitors were tested to the hilt. The event became more interesting because of the rain and the wet track,” he said.
Nikhil Jaspal of TCAS said it was a matter of pride that the Autocross, Motocross and Offroad Challenge was held on the longest track in the north India.
As many as 160 competitors took part in the OYA Autocross, Motocross and Offroad Challenge. There were 10 categories in Autocross and five categories in Motocross.
