Kim guns for crucial final win in GT Series
MANILA, Philippines - Korean Peter Kim of the TRS-Castrol Racing Team guns for the most important win to boost his chances for top honors as the 2012 Philippine GT Championship series wraps up with an exciting finale today at the Clark International Speedway.
Kim hopes to pull off an upset over the father-son tandem of Arnel and Dwight Kevin Carlos in the GT200 class to salvage an overall third place honors for the TRS-Castrol Racing Team powered by Castrol, Bridgestone, Standard Insurance, Coke Zero, OMP, C!Magazine, Toptul, Speedlab, Aguila Auto Glass and Oakley.
The South Korean, who only started racing last January under the grassroots TRS Cup program, created a stir in the third leg at BRC when he finished fourth with his Honda Civic EK Auto Access car in the GT main race to capture the GT200 runner-up honors.
But he missed action in the next two legs, losing the needed points to push his title bid.
TRS-Castrol Racing team manager Mike Tuason has already instructed his crew to leave no stone unturned to ensure Kim’s smooth run throughout and hopefully score another big win.
“Kim is doing great. He’s not just contented giving his 100 percent, he’s not afraid to explore what more he could do because he always pushes his limits in every race. That’s a distinct character of a further racing champ and we believe he’ll be among the country’s top marquee race car drivers in a year or two,” said Tuason.
