The Big Rock Dirtpack in Bengaluru will witness some high-octane off-roading action next week! The second edition of the Red Bull Ace of Dirt is all-set to take place on March 18 and 19 in Bengaluru. The special track is designed by Red Bull athlete and Dakar rally pilot, CS Santosh and is also claimed to be the toughest two-wheel race in the country. And hold on, the prize for the winner doesn’t get better — just like the previous round, the winner gets a chance to train with CS Santosh himself!
The circuit comprises specially laid courses that have Motocross, Dirt Track and Enduro elements to test the breadth of the riders’ skills. Playing field will be leveled as all the 32 participants who will enter the event will be riding the Hero Xpulse fitted with the rally kit.
Excited about the Red Bull Ace of Dirt second edition, CS Santosh said, “In 2019, I grabbed the opportunity with energy drink giant Red Bull to dream up this event – the toughest two-wheel race in the country. After the successful first edition, I am super excited about the upcoming event. Red Bull Ace of Dirt is a unique concept, a new format of racing that has not been seen in India before. It combines different off-road disciplines - Motocross, Dirt Track and Enduro, allowing different types of riders to compete together. It tests different skills and will hopefully help drivers to one day transition into cross country rally racing and then on to the Dakar! Hero MotoSports joined hands as part of their vision to promote MotorSports and Off-Road biking culture in India and I am thrilled that they will continue to support this year.”
Yuva Kumar was the winner of the last event and he got the once in a lifetime opportunity to train with CS Santosh. To those who dream of going to the Dakar one day, this is a great opportunity to hone and polish your riding skills.
