“This is a dream come true not just for us at Mazda Philippines, but for the Manila Sports Car Club (MSCC) as well,” shares Mazda Philippines president and CEO Steven Tan. “It was a long time coming, and it’s the result of our blood, sweat, and tears. It’s truly a passion project, and I’m glad that MSCC members were able to celebrate driving with the most-raced car in the world—the MX-5.”
Races 3 and 4 will be held on August 27, 4 and 5 on October 22, and 7 and 8 on November 26. All races will be held in Clark. If you want to read more about the MX-5 Cup car being driven in this year’s championship, check out this previous story.
