Toyota South Africa Motors (TSAM) joined the MTN Shift Gaming Experience, one of South Africa’s largest national gaming tournaments, which is taking place at Hyprop Malls across the country.
As the official racing partner of the nationwide gaming convention, the Toyota Gaming Engine (TTGE) will play host to GT7 SuperSprint – a high-energy tournament guaranteed to deliver speed, skill and unforgettable fan experiences.
The tournament will travel to major Hyprop Malls nationwide, bringing a premium motorsport-inspired gaming experience to thousands of South African gaming enthusiasts. Two state-of-the-art sim rigs will be installed at each location, where visitors of all skill levels can strap in for free-to-play or the daily time lap challenges. The MTN Shift Gaming Experience will offer participants the opportunity to drive the exciting Toyota Gazoo Racing sports cars in a virtual setting.
While open to all ages, prizes will be awarded exclusively to participants aged 18 and older. Each day’s fastest lap will win a R1 000 shopping voucher to use at the mall where they competed. Winners of the grand prize, an all-expenses paid Toyota Gazoo Racing Driving Academy (TGRDA) experience for two, will be announced at the end of the MTN Shift Gaming Experience in September.
