Final race of Vios Cup Season 5 set this weekend in Pampanga
ANOTHER exciting and exhilarating season of the Vios Cup comes to an end this weekend with the third and final race of Season 5 slated on Sept. 22 at the Clark International Speedway, Pampanga.
A brainchild of former Toyota Motor Philippines President Michinobu Sugata, the Vios Cup is designed primarily to relive motorsports in the country in a waku doki (exciting) manner, and in five years has gained much headway in that thrust with the event becoming one of the most awaited motorsports events in the country.
Vios Cup Season 5 is coming off a successful second race staging held at Filinvest, Alabang, in July, with the participants engaging once again in intense street driving to earn race points.
For the final race, 53 racers, composed of 46 drivers and seven celebrity racers, go into battle once again to stake their claim as champion in the various categories of the Vios Cup, which boasts of One-Make racers.
Among the competing teams in the Vios Cup are Toyota Alabang, Obengers, Team TQA, Manila Proof Racing, Toyota San Fernando, AP Corse/Toyota Makati, Toyota San Pablo, Toyota Cebu, and Team Biskeg.
While celebrity racers are Sam Milby, Diego Loyzaga, Sofia Andres, Chie Filomeno, Fabio Ide, Gretchen Ho, and Troy Montero.
Gates to the final race open at 9 a.m. with the races scheduled until 5 p.m.
To make it more exciting for spectators, the event has various food concessioners, a selfie park, and other activities such as arcades and skid carts catered to the whole family.
The 2018 Vios Cup is done in partnership with Bridgestone and Rota, official fuel partner Petron, supported by Motul, TRD, Brembo, Denso, AVT, 3M, OMP, and TuasonRacing.com.
