ACE attacks the Batangas Racing Circuit once again, aiming to top the leaderboards and more importantly improve and develop our motorsports division.

We are happy to share that both drivers were able to set their own Personal Bests during their stints and were able to complete all sessions without trouble and go all out!

We would like to thank the following sponsors for their continuous support in our motorsport ventures.

Run it Back.

ACE's Racing team strikes again at Full Throttle Weekend last May 24. Despite the unfavorable heat and track surface temperature, the team was able to have a successful stint and even new personal bests on all boards.

Zach Cheng piloted his M2 Competition as he pushed to reach a blistering time of 1:51.2, joining the ELITE 100 for the 3rd time. He now has 2 current ELITE 100 times for his M2C, and will continue to push the limits for the coming stints.

James Manzano enters FTW with his Ignition Red GR86, this marks his 3rd ever trackday at BRC. He clocks a new personal best of 1:57.9, proving that track time, perseverance, and sheer will is more than enough to set a quick time here on the track. Boasting an all stock set-up, he aims to further best his time at the next leg with more experience under his belt.

ACE has always been present at track events, whether competitive or for leisure. Cars are meant to be enjoyed, and driven hard in the right places. We would like to thank our sponsors for allowing us the avenue to enjoy our passion 10/10ths. We hope to see more of the ACE community on track and on the road very soon!

Choro-Qs: Oddly Scaled, Rooted in Culture
Written by Nathan Manalo
Volume 1. Issue 3

One of the first articles on our revamped website is now live. In this piece, Nathan Manalo explores Choro-Qs, the small super deformed pull back toy cars by Takara Tomy that captured everything from everyday street cars to iconic race machines from series like Super GT, WRC, and D1GP. More than just toys, these pocket sized models became time capsules of a different era in car culture when media felt closer and the cars you saw on TV could live on your desk or in your pocket.
