Auto Extreme says it all. Long live the legend in our hearts. I will say no more…
Here’s the complete segment we aired on our TV show Auto Extreme, as our final tribute to one of the true Filipino motorsports legends, Mr. Pocholo Ramirez. This video covers the assembly and convoy of about a hundred cars that drove all the way to Subic, so that his family, friends, and fans could pay their last respects and witness his “final lap” at the Subic International Raceway. The urn containing his remains were strapped with his favorite trophy in his old sportscar, then was driven full-speed at the tracks by his eldest son Kookie. A fitting tribute to the man… Rest in peace, Tito Poch. God bless you.

truly befitting a king. it’s so sad that his court will also cease operations.
i am one of those fortunate ones to have my baptism of fire in Subic International Raceway and to have met the king face-to-face albeit for a nanosecond only (he asked me once for directions to the tent of his team which was participating in a slalom event in the MOA grounds)
both will be in our hearts and will be remembered.
