The winning team will receive prizes for their community members. A PlayStation 5 and gift cards are on the line.

Each team’s process is measured by images of Toyota sedans completing laps and earning points. The score can be found at the bottom of each livestream. Viewers can help drive the cars forward by sending Toyota sedan emotes in the live Twitch chat.
