Following a hugely successful outing in the inaugural Toyota GR Cup, claiming outright victory in the GR Yaris single make series, our very own race-ace Ashley Oldfield was invited by Toyota SA to fill a seat in the final race of the 2022 GTC season. Ash really had his work cut out for him as he had never even driven a GTC car, nevermind raced in one. He barely had any time to practice at all before the lights went out and it was time to race. So, how did it go? Only one way to find out. We hope you enjoy the video and check out the rest of our video series following the GR Cup here:
