MY BEGINING IN MOTORSPORTS ACTIVITIES

The whizzing, whooping, racing car and bikes, watched on sport channels, magazine and other places thrilled me right from my childhood. The fascination and thrill guided me all the way, into the zooming, career of car racing. Initially as a kid, when I owned my first bicycle began with slow cycling & racing events at school and whenever I got a favourable opportunity.

As grew up, I learned driving at a very early age of 7, when was merely in 4th grade. By the time! Reached Grade 11th had started racing in 2 wheeler events, held locally at my town. Owning a bike at the age of 16 I was completely set to participate in rallies. Unfortunately could not attain them at that moment due to certain family difference in opinions. But, I pleasingly managed to convince them for my participation in motorsports power NTROL WITH EY

Then for the first time participated in DIRT TRACK Event at Nasik in 1994-95 and finished 4th ir a Grid of 14 Riders. Later participated at Monsoon Rally. Nasik and succeeded in the best colour, finished at 1st place and in Overall at the 5th place alongside most Professional Riders. Thereafter, I was awarded as the best First Timer or Novice (Rokkie). Here, my career began at the greatest phase, in a full swing. Participated in various rallies every time paving a wider road towards success.
