Total Vote(s) : 215 | Total Testimonial(s) : 22

I'm an Automotive Engineer, a huge automotive freak. Love to explore anything and everything about cars. Driving and racing is what I love the most. I'm a small part of the Indian racing series and intend to always be to a part of racing. I try to understand any car given to me and perceive to get used to every minute charateristics of the car. I love to test them to the limit also. And by God's grace and a bit of my hard work, I'm able to express my experience with the car in words. My partner is a professional writer and I haven't seen anyone who has so much passion for writing.

We are the best candidates because...

Knowledge is useful only if shared. A mechanic with a 10-year experience will possess more knowledge than a fresher Automotive engineer, yet the engineer is paid more as he is able to express his ideas in words. Similarly, travelling pleasure could be enjoyed by anyone, but expressing it to the rest is no layman's job. With an experience of writing for my website on a day to day bases and with some automotive engineering knowledge, I can express my thoughts about the car. My partner being a professional writer and fond of nature, she can cover the environmental part, making us an ideal package to make our readers feel what exactly we are going through. Being into writing, and we have learnt a few photography tricks, to capture some eye-catching images too.

Our Travel Plan

The equipment being given to us, is the Cedia "Sport", the first thing that clicked us is motorsports and our first thought was the Kari Motor Speedway in Coimbatore. So we intend to travel from our hometown Mumbai,to the Motorsport capital, the Manchester of South India, Coimbatore. The rainy season makes the climate and conditions makes South India a great experience to travel and live. Kari Motor Speedway will be one of our main stops, if permission granted, we can test the Cedia at its destined place, the Chettipalyam track in Tamil Nadu.

Our Travelogue

Rachit: With me, being into racing, I travel to Coimbatore, I have travelled to Coimbatore quiet a few number of times. Initially, I wasn't too keen to visit South India, but now I have fallen in love with Coimbatore, specially the Kari track and amazing climate and winds which keep on blowing keeping the track temperature low, and in rains the wind is more pleasant and greener and cleaner. I travel to Coimbatore through air, and I have always dreamt to travel through road and finally, the time has come and Mitsubishi has set the platform for enthusiasts like us, and we won't let them down.This is just my about my travel plan to Coimbatore. I have been travelling to the Northern part of the country, specially Jammu and Kashmir, Punjab and Himachal atleast once a year and have explored various parts of Maharashtra as well.

Rachit has a passion for racing n he truly deserves to be a winner..!! All the best to Rachit n Rhutu

Mixalis K

Vote for the most passionate automotive person you could ever meet ! He truly deserves to be there

Soumit Saha

I have known Rhutu from my school days. If there is any one thing about her that i can testify with all the conviction in my heart, it is the fact that she is an absolute travel and adventure freak. There is nothing in this world that pleases her more, than to visit and experience new places and cultures. Add in the fact that she works for one of the best magazines in the country, her ability to write and express herself can hardly come under any scrutiny whatsoever. And considering the fact that her partner is a professional race car driver, i see no reason why this team should'nt be the most deserving candidate for this competition. All the best Rhutu and Rachit.

Thomas Philip
