SCCA H Stock - Toyota Yaris Forums

So far after two events it looks like the Yaris is only a few tenths behind a similar prepped Mini.
I did 3 runs in my Yaris then 2 in an '06 Mini at Friday's test and tune.

Yaris: 34.2
'06 Mini: 33.9

I should have taken another run in my car to see if course familiarity was the cause but I'm just happy it's that close. The Mini was definitely set up more loose than my car as it took little effort to shake its rear around nicely. It seemed to have a little more punch when accelerating too... the Yaris has a noticeable delay when applying throttle.

Having rigid upper strut mounts on the front of the Yaris would help a lot too, but not legal.
