Rajiv Ruparelia and co-driver Ronnie Walia are continuing to leave their doubters in dust after putting up another dominant display in third round of the FMU Autocross championship that happened in Kayunga on Sunday at Zion Estate, Ssisa.
Driving a VW Polo Proto, the crew won the Kayunga rally after posting 05:18.5. Ponsiano Rwakataka and Samuel Mugisha came second after posting 05:22.2 while second round winning crew of Ronald Ssebuguzi and Leon Ssenyange posted 05:24.5 and settled for the third place.
Despite the ever improving displays for his so far two competitive outings, Rajiv is for better fortunes.
“I am still learning from the big old boys but I want to match the top five,” Rajiv said shortly after the rally.
He said that he is now in for another intensive preparation ahead of the Africa Rally Championship event which will also double as the fourth round on the calendar scheduled for August 2 to 4.
