Eighty-six off-road racing teams have registered for the 2022 reality TV show ‘HTV Challenge Cup’ held by Ho Chi Minh City Television (HTV) in the southern metropolis in the middle of this month, according to the organizer’s announcement on Tuesday.
The show was introduced in 2019 in an effort to promote off-road racing in Vietnam.
It has since grown into a highly-anticipated annual event for fans of the sport.
This year, HTV continues to organize the fourth edition of the show at its familiar filming area in Cu Chi District from September 15 to 18.
