Rally enthusiast group Rally Art organised its 9th rally school in Bangalore which was facilitated by nine-time Malaysian champion, APRC champion and PWRC champion Karamjit Singh. Entries were limited to 16 students ensuring a good mix of experienced and novice drivers. The three-day programme of theory and practice sessions began with Karamjit walking the 2.25km track before driving on it. Following rally school format, Karamjit began with a students drive, while giving them on-the spot feedback. Day two was devoted to the method for making pace notes. Karamjit emphasised the importance of pace notes and how accuracy can spell the difference between a podium finish and outright win.

The students initially made their own pace notes with Karamjit chipping in with his suggestions to help them clear stages faster. After the pace notes session, Sanjay Agarwal navigated for the students while they took to the track in the opposite direction.

On the final day, the students were urged to put into practice all the technical insights and knowhow they had acquired during the programme. Karamjit was patience personified as he put them through the paces. The finale featured a timed run through the course in which Byram Godrej finished ahead ofVishal and Vikram.
