GAC goes for gold
GAC Motor finished strong
GAC Motor successfully captured the championship title at this year’s Gat Andres Bonifacio Cup Endurance Challenge in the race’s Manufacturer’s Class and Open Class Group B.
In celebration of the 156th Bonifacio Day, the exciting racing action kicked off at 9 a.m. last 1 December at the Batangas Racing Circuit (BRC) in the town of Rosario. In the endurance race, participants in the Manufacturer’s Class (Makisig Category) battled head-to-head for four hours, while in the Open Class Group B (Matatag Category) contenders scuffled tooth and nail for eight long hours before finally crossing the finish line.
GAC Motor Race Team, composed of Brennan Lim, Mark Bernardo, Francis Arjonillo, Aurick Go, Sung Joon Park, Andre Tan, Jun Magno (race engineer) and E.Z. Ligaya (team manager), was ahead of the pack in both the four-hour Makisig Category and eight-hour Matatag Category.
Both race entries, two GA4 sedan units, showcased the exceptional performance and unmatched features that GAC Motor offers. When the checkered flag waved after eight hours of endurance test, GAC Motor finished strong without any major issues aside from refueling and tire changes.
The recently concluded Bonifacio Cup was the second triumphant feat of GAC Motor in 2019 after the carmaker’s win at the Kalayaan Cup last June. This is one way to prove the brand’s formidable products as endurance racing is an extreme test of durability, reliability and performance.
