48 racers to rev up in Vios Cup at MOA

MANILA, Philippines - Toyota is gearing up for the 2015 Vios Cup third leg slated Sept. 5-6  at Mall of Asia, Bayside road in Pasay.

After taking the action to various locations across the country, Toyota is bringing the waku-doki motorsports experience back to the heart of Manila.

 “Last year, we staged the season-ending race in Manila particularly McKinley West where thousands of spectators witnessed how we stage waku-doki,” said Toyota Motor Philippines (TMP) president Michinobu Sugata.

“Today, it is only fitting that we bring back the biggest local racing event here in Manila after a successful leg at the Queen City of the Philippines, Cebu... It has always been my dream to bring the race closer to the people and having this year’s Vios Cup staged in the Bayside area will surely help spectators from around the Metro catch the heart-pounding wheel-to-wheel adrenaline of each grid live and in action,” he added.

This year, 48 racers composed of 40 individual teams and eight celebrity racers will battle it out for top honors in  Sporting class, Promotional class and Celebrity class with each category crowning its champion.

Expected to spice up the action are celebrity racing pioneers such as reigning Vios Cup champion DJ Sam YG, Phoemela Baranda, Derek Ramsey and Jasmine Curtis.
