Those are Goodyear 23x9-15 cantilever slicks, big and sticky.

Off to the Streets of Willow for three days of Yaris racing and GT5 playing. Should be interested... As Joey Logano and Coach Gibbs will both be taking the wheel of our Yaris.

Hmmm - How about a group buy on the giant posters? That would look awesome on a wall in my office.

They let me bring it home. I have no idea where I am going to put it, the thing is huge, the image of the car is literally bigger than the actual car.

Well, if you decide you don't have a place for it...

What a cool event. Just got back from three days at the Streets of Willow with all three Yaris race cars. We were working on a RACER/Toyota/Sony video for the first two days, and spent the third with members of the media (SPIKE TV, Motor Trend, Modified Mag, Super Street, Playboy.com, WIRED and others) as they got to experience Sony GT5 and the GT Spec Yaris race cars we built with Toyota Motorsports.
We were also fortunate enough to have all of the Joe Gibbs Racing crew on hand, Joey Logano, Joe, J.D. and Coy Gibbs, as well as MX riders Davi Millsaps and Justin Brayton. Logano, Millsaps and Brayton each set times in the GT cars for the media to try and beat. Then the entire JGR crew took turns in the HP car for bragging rights... Logano crushed them, and he was just as quick on the GT5 game. We were very happy to see the all three cars come back in one piece - with filming and all the media/VIP drives I think we put nearly 300 laps on the HP car. :shock: Just to make things fair the JGR team did let me take one of the retired short track cars out for some laps.

that's awesome. You should auction off the larger-than-life poster. I want it for my shop.

I found the teaser for the event online. We shot this stuff when the guys from Sony were doing their drivers school. The on-track footage with the camera car was done with Philip (my boss) and I driving. There is also some in-car from when Chris and Taku (GT5 producers) took their first laps in the HP car, in the rain.

Yes, if only those rare awesome days were not split up by endless weeks sitting in front of a computer.

Working on it... But that seems to be a long ways off.
Tons of images from the three days: http://yarisclubsportchallenge.smugm...69780093_VvbXZ
