The second leg of the Super Car Rally, being held from December 11 to 15, 2025 in collaboration with the Government of Sikkim and the Black Cat Division under the aegis of the Trishakti Corps of the Indian Army, began from Siliguri in West Bengal and is now en route to enter Sikkim.
As the convoy advanced along NH-10, the roar of high-end supercars reverberated through the valley, creating an unmistakable sense of excitement along the route.
The powerful accelerations, precision handling, and unmistakable engine notes cutting through the mountain air added a dynamic burst of energy to the otherwise challenging terrain. Spectators and bystanders along the highway witnessed an impressive display of speed, control, and sheer automotive performance as the vehicles navigated the winding stretches of the corridor.
During this stretch, the convoy passed through several areas affected by the recent GLOF, beginning from Birik Dara. The route highlighted the region’s demanding topography and the ongoing recovery efforts across the impacted zones. Participants observed the changing landscape, restoration work, and the resilience of local communities as they moved through the affected areas.
To ensure the smooth and safe movement of vehicles during the event, NHIDCL undertook essential road restoration and strengthening activities along NH-10. Approximately 350 metres of road at the 27th–28th Mile stretch, previously in earthen condition, was upgraded within three days.
At KM 2 (Kalijhora), NHIDCL is carrying out slope protection works, including SDA anchor bars with pressure grouting, HT wire mesh installation, drainage channelling, and supporting structures such as breast walls, RCC walls, and gabion walls to keep the highway stable and operational.
Furthermore, the convoy has crossed the Teesta River and is en route to Rangpo, where the official flag-off for the Sikkim leg of the rally will take place.
