The Hachi-Roku Cup – Season 1

Welcome to the first Hachi-Roku Cup at GT Champions. Four rounds. Eight races. One car. No excuses.

Sponsored by CommInnSense.com

The Toyota GR86 is pure driving: lightweight, rear-wheel drive, and honest. With no turbo and no big horsepower to bail you out, every tenth comes from carrying speed through corners, hitting your marks, and racing smart in close traffic.

The Hachi-Roku Cup is a four-round championship, with two heat races each race weekend. That means twice the action, twice the chances to fight back, and twice the pressure to deliver. Points are awarded in every race and carry across the whole season, so consistency is king. A rough heat can be answered in the next one, but the title goes to whoever shows up strong all eight times.

Whether you’re a seasoned GR86 pilot or new to the car, this is the place to sharpen your racecraft and prove it on track.

Format: 4 rounds · 2 heat races per round (8 races total) · Championship points every race

The Hachi-Roku Cup

Season 1 • 2026

Four rounds. One car. No excuses. The Toyota GR86 is pure driving: lightweight, rear-wheel drive, and honest. With no turbo and no big horsepower to bail you out, every tenth comes from carrying speed through corners, hitting your marks, and racing smart in close traffic. The Hachi-Roku Cup brings drivers together for a four-round championship built on tight, door-to-door competition. Points carry across every round, so consistency matters as much as raw pace. One bad night can cost you the title, and one great drive can put you right back in it. Whether you’re a seasoned GR86 pilot or new to the car, this is the place to sharpen your race craft and prove it on track.
