Need a new grill? I have one laying around. It’s 2 years old but all there. Just supply your own hardware.

Thanks for the offer, but no, we are going to update to the 2018.

Prep for the 2018 Runoffs at Sonoma is almost done. Rather than building a new car for one race (the program ends this year) we decide to update the 2015. So all the applicable pieces from the 2018 were removed and it was sent to the crusher. The 2015 gets a facelift, and one last race - seemed wrong not to run the chassis that has brought us two Runoffs poles, a championship, and two second place finishes.

Happy to be going in the favorite, but its going to be a very challenging track to get it done on.

Wow, that incident on Sunday really shows why you need crash protection, maybe I should put the beam back on mine before the next TRD cup.

Great job Jason.

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.
