Commenting on the win, Mr. Viren Popli, Executive Vice President, Strategy & Market Development, Mahindra Two Wheelers said that <\/p>\n

\u201cShamim and the Rodeo RZ have yet again proved that they are an unbeatable combination! The fact that the new Rodeo RZ emerged victorious on such a challenging track is clear testimony of its maneuverability, power and ability to negotiate tough conditions. My congratulations to Shamim and in future, we will see this winning duo take on many more such challenges.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n

National champion Shamim Khan started his career in the year 2000 and has been dominating the local Maharashtra rallies for almost five years now.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is a thrilling victory for me as it\u2019s the very first time I\u2019ve participated in the Pit stop rally. The new Mahindra Rodeo RZ performed admirably in spite of the demanding nature of the track and complimented my riding skills very well. I look forward to participating with the Mahindra Rodeo RZ in future rallies as well.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n
