Yup , the car is fast I got into 1:33 range in the morning . But in the afternoon when the tires and track heated up I was in the 1:34 , 1:35's consistently . Time for some new tires . I drove a Miata on Bridgestone Re 11's . They were sweet . Very capable . Hmmmm .

Peeps were saying I was on 3 wheels in turn 2 and 4 . The car rotated very well without a swaybar , but i think I will get one anyway just to keep up with Wade I got to 110 mph a couple of times before I would brake at 250' mark .

Can't wait to go back

Oh , Stock belts

What tires were you running?

We ended up in the 33's for me, and 32's for wade after the first day. The second day, i improved quite a bit, and so did wade but we didnt keep track of the times!! :( We are on the sticky dunlops. The car drives REALLY well. Everyone was BLOWN AWAY at how fast and fun the yaris is!! I think we will be selling some soon LOL!

DJ, you should pick up a rear sway bar and a SEAT!! I got a good seat now and it made all the difference. It was hard to stay in it without it! Are you flat through 3? it takes some major balls, but the car will do it!

I wish i had some pics, but everyone that i know was in our group so we didnt get any shots!
