The rider from Bengaluru, originally hailing from Palakkad, Saidalvi, who previously clinched the Indian National champion title in the Unrestricted category in 2022, showcased his skills with a remarkable sub-eight second run, achieving a top speed of 235.75 km/h to become the fastest rider of Round 2. His tuner, Syed Mateen from Bengaluru, was also honored with the Best Tuner award for the second consecutive round. Shahrukh Khan again stood out as the fastest rider in the Indian Bikes section.
