On May 30, 2004, C! Magazine invited the Audi Car Club of the Philippines (ACP) and several other car clubs to an open track day at Batangas Raceway Circuit (BRC). It was a whole day affair that started when the car clubs and C! Magazine all met up at the Petron Gas Station south of Alabang. Free coffee was provided by Starbucks and C! Magazine of course! The caffeine certainly did help keep us awake since the meeting time was at 5:30am. The rear parking lot of the gas station was filled with Audis, BMWs, and some japanese import cars, not to mention other motorcyle and car clubs that also uses Petron as their meeting place. After a brief orientation by C! Magazine, we all hopped on our cars and proceeded to BRC. Traffic wasn't all that bad and was only limited to the tollway area exiting SSH. Cars slowly trickled in to the BRC via the back entrance. After everyone registered at the C! magazine booth, a final track briefing was given to the drivers and off they went. Amongst the many european cars that has graced the racetrack, import cars like the Honda S2000, Civic Type-R, Subaru WRX STI, and the Mitsubishi Lancer also showed some presence in the race track by pulling off some best lap times.

Overall, the track meet at the BRC was nothing short of a success. This can not be done without the help of C! Magazine and their staff.

On behalf of everyone who participated in this open track day at BRC, I would like to thank C! Magazine for a job well done! Hope there are move events like these to come.
