New Yaris race car - Page 5 - Toyota Yaris Forums

Anything we can reuse will be pulled off. We actually put one of my spare control arms on the car (the old one had the ball joint broken off), started the car and drove it on the trailer. If it were not for nearly every piece of bodywork being mangled the car could have been run next year.

Make it happen!

LOL about CTScott.

Perhaps the body could be used as a bucket on a backhoe.

One very sad looking 2012 Yaris was dropped off in Torrance today, destine for the crusher.

The upside is I now have twice the garage space, which makes the wife happy, and I should have a lot more free time this year.

^ Are there any wheels/tires around?

Is there anything STF legal that you set aside for purchase from fellow forum users? :-)
Sad face about the car though.

Recently got the Oct 2012 issue of DSport, includes DVD27, which has some great coverage of the Toyota Trading Places event we did with Andy Bell and Jamie Bestwick.

Here is a pic from the 2012s last ride.

It was a great eight year run, but it was time to focus on other things. I'm still selling parts on eBay under micro*image seller ID and customers can still make requests for anything specific.
