Well the first track day with the Yaris went spectacular! Spent the first day and the first session of the second day on the factory tires, and swapped to some Direzzas and factory camber bolts the last sessions. What a great car!
I've had a bit of experience in Formula Mazda and other various non-SCCA track days in my personal cars(S2000, WRX, RX7, etc.), but this has got to be the most fun and forgiving car i've driven hard in a LONG time. Everyone was snickering at the guy who trailered in a Yaris, but by the end of the day people were coming up to me asking me how the car was sooo fast haha. After the first two sessions, the instructor waved me for the rest of the weekend. Certainly not bragging, but most of the instructors said if it wasn't for the car being so low on power that I'd be in another run group. The FF layout feels very comfortable for me coming from a Formula background and braking BEFORE the turn and powering through. I'll be posting some video of me chasing down and passing a GT Mustang and a BMW Z4 as well :) ![]() Thanks, Andrew Last edited by FHT_Racing; 03-12-2013 at 10:46 AM. |
