Toyota Motor Philippines (TMP) is set to provide more heart pounding-action in the second leg of the Toyota Gazoo Racing (TGR) Vios Cup 2023 this weekend.
Scheduled tomorrow (September 9) at the Clark International Speedway in Pampanga, race fans are invited to watch on-site and online beginning at 9:30 a.m.
Those who want to see the race cars and the drivers battle it out on the tracks may do so since the event is open to the public with no admission fee. Meanwhile, motorsports fans may also opt to view the race via livestream on the Toyota Gazoo Racing Facebook page.
