India representation for the first time in the WORLD FINALS of Motorcycle Drag Racing held in USA. Qualifying is over and Team India has performed extremely well. To adapt to a new Surface, Bike power, formats etc quickly and then to perform in their very first experience is truly awesome.

#WorldFinals - India’s first ever representation at the World Finals of Motorcycle Drag Racing. Sonu Sundeep Singh Sokhi & Amit Sharma have made our country proud 🇮🇳. We salute the “Fastest Indians” for their commitment & dedication to the “World Fastest Sport”.

All odds were against the 2. They had never raced on a Drag Prepped Surface, had not been used to the Power of the machines & got only 2 days of training under Rickey Gadson Drag School. That’s a tough ask for anyone to perform with such seasoned racers. But they did it in style and beat the best in the World & earned their RESPECT on a #GlobalPlatform Man Cup.

There were over 800+ Participants from across the Globe. Racers who have 20+ years of experience.

- Sundeep Singh Sokhi (Sonu) qualifies #3 out of 31 entries in “Street fighter Class“. Sonu earned his way to the final 8 bikes in a sea of seasoned racers.
- Amit Sharma becomes the “Fastest Indian Rider” in India’s drag racing history when he produced a 8.87sec time-slip. He earned his way to the Top 16 in a seasoned racers class of 64 entries.

#EliteOctane would like to Congratulate the Fastest Indian who made our country proud & Rickey Gadson 62 for all the support extended to make this dream a reality. We certainly have a bright future ahead for Indian Racers.

Absolutely. We had told them that it’s a first experience so to just enjoy the journey. But with just 2 days of training Under Rickey Gadson, they adapted brilliantly. Just goes to show the caliber of both 👌👍 the seasoned racers were also amazed and then eventually got really concerned to race against them 😊.
