Tuason seeks drifting crown for TRS Castrol

MANILA, Philippines - Multi-titled rider Mike Tuason hopes to do better with major adjustments in his Castrol RX7 car as he bids for a win for the TRS-Castrol Drifting Team in the third round of the 2012 Lateral Drift Championship Series today at the Quirino Grandstand.

Tuason, the amateur champ two years back, will ride by his lonesome, hoping to put the team on the winner’s podium through the big support of Castrol, Bridgestone, Standard Insurance, Coke Zero, OMP, C! Magazine, Toptul, Speedlab, Aguila Auto Glass and Oakley.

He hopes the much-improved set-up of his Castrol RX7 car could give him the leverage against the more favored Nissan Skyline and Sylvia s15 cars and overcome pressure from his more experienced rivals in the Pro division,

The long break gave Tuason enough time to make adjustments best suited for the make-shift track and the tough challenge of the opposition.

“The competition has leveled up and we expect a much tougher title journey this season. Giving your best is not enough, you really have to push your limits to keep up with the top guns. Hopefully, our strategy and car set-up work well for us,” said Tuason.
