The PVOIL VOC 2019 will be a special occasion as it is the first time that the race is named the Vietnam Off-road Car Race PVOIL Cup 2019. Therefore, PVOIL VOC 2019 will also be the most professional season ever, from organization according to international standards, scoring with modern technology to ensure the goals of Safety – Fairness – Transparency and Enjoyment of the race.
In addition, in the 4 categories: Vietnam Pickup, Basic, Advanced and Expanded, the organizing committee will make changes to the regulations in all categories to increase safety for athletes during the competition as well as minimize damage to vehicles and people.
This year, at the request of many racing teams, the Adventure – the night challenge track- will return after a year of interruption and take place on the first competition night, 09/28. This stage is traditional and not only a challenge for the participating athletes but also a truly unforgettable experience, where competitors become teammates and compete in groups with the spirit of “the test is only completed when the whole group finishes”.
PVOIL VOC 2019 track map
This year’s competition has a total of 11 tracks, including 2 tracks for side-by-side racing. Track 2 is for all 4 categories of racing, expected to bring exciting speed climb scenes. Track 6 is specially designed for the Expanded category with three deep holes that will captivate the audience just like last year’s rock climbing test.
Track 5 with the challenge of climbing straight walls will continue to be a difficult puzzle for teams to solve. However, Bone Dry Challenge Track 10, is expected to remain an impossible challenge for most teams, as demonstrated in the previous season.
On the first competition day, teams will compete on tracks 2, 4, 6, 8, and 9. The second competition day will take place on tracks 1, 3, 5, 7, and 10.
