Cebu’s Team ACR blazed the tracks in the 2nd leg of the Drag Wars 2018 held last May 5 and 6 in the City of Bogo, northern Cebu.
ACR swept the top three spots in the premier Quick 8 Open category using their Nissan GT-R sports cars to rule the racing event that was made possible through the efforts of Mayor Carlo Jose Martinez of the City of Bogo.
Ferdinand Chua led the team by taking the top spot using his orange GT-R while his teammates Clifton Paray and Daniel Lua were his runners up.
Cebu teams nearly took all the titles in the motorsports event but Felix Ng of Iloilo’s FN Motorworx prevented a sweep when he emerged champion in the Quick 8 All-Motor class.
