Nissan Philippines recently invited us to test the 2024 Nissan GT-R and the all-new 2024 Nissan Z at the Clark International Speedway (CIS).

Rosa, Laguna this weekend, August 26 to 28, 2022. The second leg of the Ford Island Conquest test drive will feature the two latest models in Ford's pickup and SUV lineup.
