Some of the best off-road drivers in the country together with their monster trucks gather in Cebu this weekend for the final leg of the 15th National Association of Filipino Off-Roaders (Nasfor) Extreme Off-road Series.
The two-day competition, which is held for the first time outside of Luzon, will be held in an off-road track put up in Talisay City, southern Cebu.
Competitors will be vying for supremacy in the hopes of winning the coveted Nasfor Driver Of The Year award.

A Cebuano himself, Toong believes that the sport, which is already growing globally, is something that Filipino drivers can excel in.
