Fmsci Indian National Autocross Championship: Muscat-based Ashad Pasha, who hails from Chikkamagaluru, and is a last-minute entrant, clocked the fastest time as he won a triple crown in the South Zone qualifier of the Fmsci Indian National Autocross Championship at the Madras International Circuit here on Saturday.
The 31-year-old reigning National champion in three different classes, Pasha flew in to support his brother, but with a car available, he took part, and he did it in style by clocking the fastest time of the day of two minutes, 28.615 seconds over the 2.4-Kms circuit which was a mix of dirt and tarmac.
Kolhapur’s Pallavi topped the Ladies' class as she clocked 03:30.081 against second-placed Reshma Inchalkar (Goa) (03:44.312) in the event conducted by the Madras Motor Sports Club. “I am from Chikkamagaluru but based in Muscat and flew in here to support my brother. But since a vehicle was available, I was persuaded to drive and so it was a last-minute decision to drive,” said Ashad who participated in three categories and topped them all.
