Congratulations to Team Agni on their historic victory in the world's first electric motoGP

As mentioned in my earlier post, out of 17 teams from all over the world two Indian teams participated in world’ first electric superbike race at Isle of Man TT. The race was won by Team Agni yesterday!
Our hearty congratulations to the team and we feel proud to see the Indian flag behind the winning rider Rob Barber in the media.

Winning team members are;
Rob Barber (rider)
Arvind Rabadia (Director, Organizer, India)
Hasmuk Rabadia (organizer UK)
Cedric Lynch (motor inventor, team mechanic)
Some work was done in factory in Gujarat, India.

About Agni motors: Joint Indian-English company Agni Motors’s claim of making quality, high efficiency and high performance electric motors gained massive credence today when it clearly bested the world’s fastest electric motorcycles to win the first clean emissions (AKA electric) motorcycle Grand Prix at an average speed of 87.434 mph (140.71kmph). It’s place in history is assured by the landmark win, but it was the team’s dominance that was most surprising.

Green is getting faster, really!!! :)

TTXGP, the world's first zero carbon clean emission Superbike race will take place on 12th June 2009, on the world famous Isle of Man TT circuit creating huge international press interest. More than a typical motorbike race, TTXGP is a showcase for the next generation of motorsports. All the entrants have built unique prototype machines. The excitement that has been building around alternative forms of transport and clean energy consumption has been harnessed and pushed to the edge to produce a major, international sporting event. TTXGP provides an opportunity to see these exciting machines close up and as well as stretched to their limits on a course that is one of the most challenging road races in the world.
The interesting thing is that out of the 17 teams, two are Indian! Team Agni and Team Tork.
