Jason's Yaris has been my motivation to take the Yaris to the track, finally I took it, I think people where more impress by its potential than I was!! seeing Hondas getting the blue flag cause the Yaris is comming.... priceless!!!!!

Garm I gotta do some shopping!


Btw people at the track knew about Jason's HB and the other 2 HB he made. So keep the great job

Cool. When we were at Laguna Seca last week there was a crew from some South (or Central, I can't recall for certain) American online publication, they put cameras on the Yaris and did a segment on the car.

I guess being a "world car" actually has meaning when it comes to the Yaris.

I know the artwork for the shirts is around somewhere, because on occasion a few new shirts pop up like they did at the Club Sport Challenge, but I don't know who has it or if they will make more.

The GT cars were on Goodyear Eagle RS (DOT race tires) 205-50-15.

Its done. Just shipped the second installment of the Yaris project. SportsCar readers should have it in 3-4 weeks.

After a week at the Toyota garage, and every combination of bucket and shims attempted, they were not able to replace our cams. Turns out the person who built our head, and reground the cam, did so in a fashion that prevents the stock cams from going back in (without pulling the head and doing more machine work) - even though he told me it would be a direct bolt-in, only requiring a shim/bucket change.

Is it part of the business model, do they all have to tell lies?

So we will run the car with our old setup this weekend. And now I am contemplating putting in the spare engine for the rest of the season.
