Gaurav Gill and Musa Sherif’s elimination in the penultimate stage gave Amittrajit Ghosh and Ashwin Naik the ultimate opportunity to secure a win for team Mahindra Adventure in the Rally of Arunachal.
It was Arunachal Pradesh’s turn to play host to round three of the 2018 Indian National Rally Championship (INRC). Termed as the Rally of Arunachal, the two-day round gave spectators a one-of-a-kind opportunity to witness the kings of gravel and muddy terrain showcase their skills on tarmac, which was indeed a first for any round of the INRC yet. With this unique aspect, the overall setup of round three was straightforward – Seven Special Stages (SS1-SS7) spread across two days with each one running a distance of 14.30km on a winding patch of National Highway 415, between Itanagar and Hollongi. Continuing with the usual modus operandi, the competitors were divided into three vehicle classes – INRC 1, 2 and 3. The rally was flagged off on 2nd November 2018 in the presence of the Chief Minister of Arunachal Pradesh, Mr Pema Khandu.
