Wow! Talk about 'waking-up in a tub of ice'. It's hard to see that practically brand-new Yaris going to the crusher, but I know the parts will be going to a more noble cause. Good luck!

Congrats, sounds like there were some tense moments.

When you say end of the Yaris program, that means moving to a different platform, or?

It was not an easy race, but I expected that since Brian Linn and I haven't been more than about a car length apart most every time we have raced the last few years.

We are done with the Yaris. Still very early talks, but looks promising for some type of racing program with a different Toyota product next year.

Sounds like the end of an era. Kudos for all you've accomplished with the Yaris. Hoping you keep us updated going forward!

Brian dive bombing you and you retaking him, and the spin out on the second to last lap, were fun moments.

The spin was just past half way, he just didn't show the rest of the race - which would have included my big off at Turn 10.

I remember reading about your going off in the article but while watching the video, assumed it was the moment you went off to the left and he took you.

Fun stuff.

Oh no, it was 90+ mph in the dirt at Turn 10. Used every inch of track.

Cool video SCCA put together, the elevator pitch of H Production. Includes shots of our 2010 and 2015 Yaris.

Bitter sweet, eh?

You'd mentioned the possibility of another Toyota partnership. Any update on that?

Plan to still check-in here every so often, or is this goodbye lol?

Nothing firm yet. At this point we are likely taking 2019 off and looking further down the road. Will still stop in here, as I do have all the parts off the car, and plan to build another in the future.

This showed up at the office today...
