Till last year this event was a navigational rally and the competition was based on time – speed distance and related penalties but this year the organizers, Sportscraft, have introduced a much thrilling concept. The new concept, although includes navigational skill, will just be a drive. The Drive, from south Mumbai to Khandala, will be broken up by certain stops along the route where the participants will require answering the given question. On the basis of the correct answer and duration the winner will be chosen. Yes indeed this concept will be different from the monotonous navigation event.
