China’s largest motorsports event attracts the likes of Toyota, Nissan, Honda and Kia Motors. While smaller in size compared to other SA-class motorsporting events, CCC is considered promising due to the immense growth potential of the Chinese market. The active participation by auto brands also points to the event’s potential. Hankook Tire sponsors the Lufang Racing team in the 2000cc category. CCC 2008 consists of six races from April to November.

One of China’s two leading motorsporting events along with CCC, CRC is scheduled to take place with seven races from March to December, 2008. In 2007, the Hankook Tire-sponsored Wanyu team grabbed top honors and shed the spotlight on Hankook’s superior technology. With races conducted on punishing gravel roads, CRC tests tires to the limit, and Hankook Tire is expecting another winning performance in 2008.

The biggest professional racing event in Korea, CJ Super Race also boasts the top speeds among touring car races. Hankook Tire has been the official tire supplier to the event as part of efforts to promote domestic motorsports. The Hankook Tire sponsored Kixx Prime Hankook team grabbed the title In 2007. In 2008, Hankook Tire plans to set up a booth at the race ground and exhibit its latest product lineup, in addition to holding special events such as posing for photos with its popular racing girls. CJ Super Race 2008 is scheduled for seven races from March to November.

Hankook R1 2008 comprises two categories of racing: an on-road race on an internationally certified circuit and an off-road event on an obstacle course with boulders and trees. Each of the categories will be divided into three classes. About 300 cars have signed up for the competition.
