The Pro Category was the premier category of the event with accomplished racers racing their own karts. Aaroh Ravindra from Mumbai completely dominated, winning all 3 races of the day. He enthralled the crowd in race 2 where the start grid was based on the reverse of the finishing order of race 1. Starting last, he made his way up in the 14 lap race to win ahead of Pune’s Aanjan Patodia. Eventually Aaroh won the overall event, ahead of Aanjan & Pune’s Amit Patil in third. Pune’s Jonathan Kuriakose drove well to win the Junior Pro category.
The Senior category saw intense competition amongst many novice drivers. Aarish Daver from Pune qualified on Pole but lost a few places at the start. He soon recovered well to win the race ahead of Pratik Sonawane who drove brilliantly to finish 2nd after starting 9th on the grid. Mudar Sanchawala finished 3rd. Aarish also rounded off the weekend by winning the Corporate category as well, ahead of Khyati and Siddhant Gangwal.
