Racers ranged from various sectors such as private individuals, businessmen, students, politicians, media and other celebrities.

Anticipating a huge crowd gauging from the initial two runs and ever since its initial run in 2012, complimentary shuttles were available at the Venice Piazza driveway, McKinley West, One World Square and Science hub to drop-off and pick-up huge crowds in batches who shared in the waku-doki (Japanese expression for heart-pumping, adrenaline rush) that a car racing brings.
