Dr Perk Customs: Team Ashva’s Vinod Singh and Shailendra Singh seized the overall lead on the penultimate day of the Motorsport Inc fmsci 14th Dakshin Dare cross-country rally with a clean and calculated drive on Saturday.

The Indore duo, piloting a 1300cc Maruti Gypsy prepared by Dr Perk Customs, capitalised on a misstep by overnight leaders Adith K.C. and co-driver Harish K.N. The Thrissur-Bengaluru pair from Team VM Motorsports lost significant time after a brief off-route excursion, dropping them to third overall.

Holding steady in second place are Chikkamagaluru’s Aieman Ahmed and Bengaluru co-driver Sagar M. (Team VM Motorsports), who delivered another day of controlled aggression. “We still have to do 77.27km twice tomorrow, and we are ready for the challenge,” stated co-driver Sagar.
