Sponsored by Indian Oil Corporation Ltd and co-sponsored by Ford – the Servo Futura Kolkata Car Rally is being organised in association with AAEI-Durgapur, and with the technical support of Calcutta Motor Sports Club. The rally is being run under the guidance of the Federation of Motor Sports Clubs of India.

This is what happens when 55 cars and hundreds of motor sports enthusiasts get together. It transforms into a time, speed, distance (TSD) rally.
 
Kolkatans geared up with much pomp and gusto to watch numerous rally cars zip across the city recently, as the biggest names of the eastern India’s motor sport circuit locked horns in a battle for supremacy at a city’s uncut motor sporting action.

The rally was flagged off by corporate dignitaries from Indian Oil Corporation and Ford from Axis Mall at New Town, Rajarhat and finished at A AEI - Durgapur. Madan Mitra, minister of sports, government of West Bengal graced the occasion as the chief guest.
