Chikkamagaluru: The three Mitsubishi Evolution variants swept the time sheets with JCT Rallying’s Samir Thapar (co-driver Gurinder Singh Mann) winning the Super Special Stage as the Coffee Day Rally, the sixth and concluding round of the FMSCI Indian Rally Championship commenced here on Friday.
While the huge crowd at the Amber Valley School grounds were disappointed when National champion Gaurav Gill (Musa Sherif) of Mahindra Adventure retired barely 200 metres after the start with a broken drive shaft, Thapar, driving the Evo X, along with Vikram Mathias (Swaroop Mohan) and PG Abhilash (Anoop Kumar) provided much of the entertainment.
