Dirang Valley (Arunachal Pradesh): Kodagu’s K.M. Bopaiah, who is a regular at the Indian National Rally Championship, emerged overall second in the JK Tyre Arunachal Festival of Speed. He was barely two or three seconds off the leader in each of the stages and even claimed the final stage, but the 28 second deficit over the first two days proved to be a bridge too far to cross. Bopaiah completed all the stages in an equally commendable one hour and 29 seconds.
