GRS News India : Kolkata , 13 July, 2025: This Sunday Kolkata will witness an intense competition among 50 corporate motoring teams as they compete to win the top honours in one of India’s largest motoring events. Yes… it is the ‘8th Car Treasure Hunt 2025’ powered by BRIDGESTONE TYRES – a unique motoring chase designed for the Corporate Executives of Kolkata who will battle for supremacy in this contest of man and machine. This event is being organised in association with Indian Oil Corporation Limited, Jyote Motors NEXA, RBL Bank, Automobile Association of Eastern India, 91.9 Friends FM, Rungta Steel and Bharat Scouts & Guides.
At the onset let me give you a brief about the “Corporate Car Treasure Hunt” concept.
Around 50 corporate teams, each team consisting of a minimum 2 adults and maximum 4 adults will be participating in their own four wheelers. At the flag off/ starting point, each team will be given a clue sheet consisting of eight different riddles, and on cracking the riddles, the teams will reach a secret destination where their arrival at the correct spot will be endorsed by the marshalls on their track card.
Let me share a random example for your easy understanding –
Riddle: Sip your “kavah” sitting at the “highest point” situated beside the “Ozone” layer while you view an architectural marvel of a 60 m dia circular ring situated 25 m above sea level with two catenary arches at a road intersection joined at the top.
Answer/ Destination: Fairfield by Marriott.
In addition to the aforementioned, this year we have added a twist to the event with an element of TSD format rallying, multiple choice Q&A on automobiles & Kolkata and collecting scavenger items from two mandatory pit stops to make it more challenging and fun. On completion of the event, teams will be evaluated on the basis of predetermined points and accordingly the Winner and First & Second Runners Up will be decided.
