Love it. We could do with a previa and a hi-lux :-)

I'd quite like a first gen Previa. Might make a good drift hack.

The Yaris' are all being run by TSS people by the looks of it, there seems to be a few people looking at running pretty much standard Yaris T-Sports next season, should be some good cheap fun competition between them.

I think I've seen the name of the GT4 driver somewhere before but it's not a TSS regular, not sure whether it's someone who has done the odd round before, whether i've seen them on other Javelin days or whether my addled mind is making the whole thing up!

/EDIT - just spotted Andy and Nigel have signed up in their Celica too, that'll be a very quick car (which ever one they bring) and they know Blyton well.

Drivers harness is fitted, Data logger nearly done, dashboard nearly refitted, still need to sound check exhaust, maybe fit a passenger seat & harness, and fix tacho....

Cutting it fine!

I'm also now planning to trailer up on Friday night. What are the people who are taking their cars down on Friday doing re: storing the car?

..the only thing I can promise for sure is slow progress.

just have this niggling thought that if I rip out the wiring, then the car will never get out of the garage again.

Still in the garage...

Don't know about trailers tbh, might be worth speaking to the hotel and seeing if they have space?

Driving it there. Locking it. Sleeping. Getting back in it and hopefully not killing it the next day :)

S'ok, I'm sorted now. Will be staying over the Friday night and leaving the car somewhere safe :)

There's a couple of Starlet GT Turbos on board now as well - they'll probably be ridiculously quick 350hp+ jobs. Supras still conspicuous by their absence.

Yeah, I still have visibility of the Supra forum but can't post without paying for membership again. There is a brief thread on there, is anyone able to bump it?
