    For the benefit of those interested, I was able to find more info about the hillclimb.

    It is being organized by the Manila Sports Car Club, and will be run on the 23rd of November. I'm not sure what the place is called, but the course layout will be short, less than 1 km long, tapos tight and really twisty.

    Sadly, according to our contact, its open only to sportscars (2 seaters, coupes, cabriolets etc.) and rally cars (Evo, WRX etc.). Medyo elitist, we raised this point to our contact and thankfully, nothing is final, we'll know for sure by tomorrow.

    Once it becomes available, I'll post final details again here.

    That sucks, dude! They should open it up to all enthusiasts, irregardless of what car is being driven.

    Are there any other motorsport enthusiast clubs that host hillclimbs?

    delikado rin kasi ang hillclimb. i can understand why they would want to restrict it.

    if a front-drive machine enters and understeers into a cliff, patay sila.

    The course they use is a road section not along a cliff.
