Vi-FA Cup at TM Circuit Wakayama to be held!

Hello everyone! We're pleased to announce the first Vi-FA race !

The race will be held on Sunday, March 9, 2025 .

This time, I went to TM Circuit Wakayama, which I have always been grateful for. This will be the occasion to crown the monthly race.

It is still difficult for us to hold the event alone, but we will do our best to ensure that all participants have a good time! Please come and join us!

🚗 What kind of race is the Vi-FA CUP?

We are still a small brand and cannot hold the same flashy events as the larger manufacturers, but we will do our best to ensure that all participants enjoy the race.
We also welcome any feedback such as "I wish there was a product like this" or "I would like to see this product changed in this way"!

Starting with the first event, we hope to steadily raise the level of the event from now on. Let's join together to make the race even more exciting!
