#NETexclusive: In conversation with Phoebe Dale Nongrum, first female professional car racer from North East to be selected in a Formula LGB 4 team.

She created history by winning the third podium in the 23rd JKtyre National Racing Championship 2020 held in Coimbatore.

Phoebe’s performance was discovered as professional car in the Formula LGB in 2019. 

Before that, she was into dirt racing and had been participating in events in Arunachal Pradesh since 2017,the only one of its kind in India.
The JK Tyre “Arunachal Festival of Speed”is a three-day event that combines three forms of off-road racing and rallying—‘the Autocross, the Rally Sprint, and the Hill Climb’. Baljit Singh Tedwal, her friend who is also from Shillong and co-driver with Phoebe Dale Nongrum, the event was memorable as they bagged the First Prize in the North East SUV Class while also taking the 2nd Runners-up in the National SUV Class and 3rd Runners-Up in the National Open Class.

She is also amongst the first female Formula Team created by ‘Ahura’
