Well... you can always go to AutoPlus or Speedlab.

Don Pastor is going to be running the Cruze in a new series... possibly against the Tuason 1.8 Focuses... but engine modifications will be quite limited (close to stock power).

Nice. It will definitely stand a chance against focus that's for sure. Hope they can still air some race on some of our local tv channels..
And I heard that BRE "Blanco Race Engineering" started to tuned some Cruze car here in the Phil too..

That's what the Pastors will be running... or so I heard. Blanco's cars.

Nice to see TRS getting some competition in the Race School scene. Their only worry is the series regulations. They have to be finalized for it to start. There's a power limit based on dyno readings (125 whp, if I remember correctly), which means that any lightly modified 1.8 or 2.0 can participate. This will make it easier for privateers to join, and it will help eliminate the problem of having guys with more powerful engines. Sure... you can tune your engine to have tons of mid-range power compared to the competition... but at least everyone has the same chances.

Congrats to you sir.. The Super Red is attractive, but the velvet red is ***ier which they don't have here in the PH..

Anyway, Cruze is still a great choice.
Cheers.

I wonder what are the slightly things they've tweak on a Cruze in order for it to join the competition, aside from its 1.8 engine with a 141hp that could compete in a stock race already..

Btw Niky, just want to ask why is it that you didn't wrote any articles or reviews regarding the Chevrolet Cruze?
