The event is set to take place on 25th August 2023 at Sentul Depot, Kuala Lumpur – once the finest integrated railway engineering hub in the 1900s, now regenerated into a must-visit lifestyle destination as part of YTL Land & Development Berhad’s masterplan for Sentul, hosting over 150 events.
The event will celebrate the power of endurance, resilience, and excellence in performance and style, inspired by the spirit of Motorsport.

At the helm of the Car Club community is PUMA’s SEA Motorsport Ambassador, Choo Sung-hoon (a.k.a “Sexyamaâ€), global MMA superstar and finalist of Netflix blockbuster reality series Physical 100! As passionate as he is in mixed martial arts, he is also a die-hard fan of Motorsport as it provides him with an equal amount of electrifying thrill that he experiences in the octagon.
“Motorsport is among the most exciting things in the world to witness, which is why it’s one of my favourite things in the world to be a part of. I am thrilled to be given this opportunity to be a partner of PUMA, and I cannot wait to share more about how much racing, MMA, and life in general have in common. PUMA’s tagline is to be Forever Faster, which is exactly what Motorsport is meant to be!†said Choo.
