The team performed exceptionally well in all the rounds bagging three podiums at Coimbatore, four at Arunachal Pradesh, seven at Chikamagalur and six at the season finale Kochi. That also makes us the team with the most podiums in 2018.

The Chairman of the Champions group Mr.Subhakar Rao who has backed the team and many young drivers this season has decided to take a step further and that is the primary reason for submitting our bids. There is a massive room for improvement in the series and our aim is to run the INRC as good as International Rallying events.

With no prior experience of running a National team to becoming one of the most successful teams in the sport in a short period of time were no joke, our will and determination have been the key and we are looking forward to putting in the same or even more efforts in the promotion of the sport"

The team owners have grand plans for the national championship series if they manage to win the bids.
