Roeblig Road - Toyota Yaris Forums

HTM Yaris · 08-18-2007, 11:08 AM

I recently took Coryn to Roebling Road in Savannah GA . Wonderful track . Even though Coryn passed nobody , she would put/gain distance in the turns . Roebling has a very long straight and it proved to be a weakness . The seats are another weakness. The the GLARING strength was that Coryn did back to back to back to back to back sessions , about 150 CONSECUTIVE laps . Everybody who drove the car loved her . Except for the seats

This got me thinking that I should petition Toyota for a Yaris to compete in the 25 hours of Thunderhill . With only seats , wheel/tires , brakes and suspension , I think the Yaris would do well , and I hope to prove it .

Enough talk , I'm going to get a Yaris ..................

You know I'm down for driving, after my experience in the car last weekend. ;)

Thanks again for the drive, and I'm just trying to find out more about how I get one of these new 's' model hatchbacks.
