Army Navy Club200 Endurance Race backed
Support for the Army Navy Club200 200/50 Endurance Race -- the Philippines’ biggest motorsports event of 2023 slated on Feb. 11 at the Clark International Speedway – has snowballed in recent weeks.
BMW Motorrad and Ducati lead the list of corporate backers in the novel motorcycle event, which features three riders sharing one transponder and riding duties in 50 thrilling laps of approximately 200 kilometers.
“It’s going to be an adrenaline-pumping racing action on the racetrack and a festival of brands throwing their support behind this motorsports spectacle, the first of it kind in the Philippines,” said Bobby Unson, President of the Club 200.
Aside from Ducati and BMW Motorrad, the endurance race is also presented by Pirelli, KTM, Angkas, Evo Helmets, APRILIA, Juan Life, Hotel 101 and Merry Mart, and powered by Wheeltek, Triumph, Harley Davidson of Manila and Motoworld, with Manila Bulletin and C! Magazine as media partners.
To level the playing field among regular everyday riders and weekend enthusiasts, Club 200 is excluding competitive racers currently riding in the National Superbike Series.
“It doesn’t get any better than this. This is everyone’s chance to live out their lifelong dreams of riding it out at a racetrack of international standards against the best riders outside of the national series,” Red Romero, past president and one of the founding members of the organizing Club 200.
