MSF CYBERTURISMO
MSF CyberTurismo is Malaysia Speed Festival’s unique virtual racing series and championship, modelled on our real-world MSF Racing Series with similar rules, regulations, and driving discipline standards. Tweaked for the virtual racing world and for live viewership, races are very exciting and use real-world everyday-Joe cars, beautified with amazing liveries, brilliant close racing, and entertaining action!
MSF CyberTurismo will run as a Championship, with a special prize at the end of every annual Championship:
• Driver Training for the top 12 Finalists in CyberTurismo category!
• Followed by track day selection!
• Experience real-world MSF as Race Observers in Race Control!
• and a Real Racing drive with the MSF-TOC racing Proton Saga Cup car in MSF Saga Cup Finale 2020!
(subject to terms & conditions – driving license, own safety apparel, etc)
The aim is to provide the virtual racers an experience of real-world vehicle and driving dynamics, and the opportunity to experience a real-world race. This also grooms those that have an interest to be part of the race management or even become a race Steward to be provided a path to achieve these ambitions as a part-time contributor to the Malaysian motorsports industry.
