Why should boys have all the fun? The fun of throttling out, the fun of shifting gears and the fun of cruising on roads. Shreya Sundar Iyer has proved it to the world that whatever boys can do, girls can do it equally well.
Iyer participated in Indian National Rally on July 10, 2017, and was placed second. The rally was held at Coimbatore.

Joining her hands with TVS Racing team in 2015, Iyer’s journey was not smooth though. Bearing a shoulder injury, she took two months for her partial recovery.
As reported by Vijaya Karnataka, during her practice for the previous edition of Indian National Rally in April, Iyer suffered a shoulder injury. She was operated with a titanium rod in her right shoulder.
