PTCC races run both at the Subic International Raceway (owned and operated by Philippine racing legend Pocholo Ramirez) and the Batangas Racing Circuit (owned and operated by Johnny Tan).
Touring car races in the Philippines has not yet reached the levels of popularity enjoyed by other motoring sports such as karting, drag racing and open wheel racing. However, the growing number of entries in the PTCC grid has grown from 24 cars in its 2005 season to 34 cars in its 2006 season. [1]
