TRD then took the GT 86 Griffon out to the Tsukuba circuit and laid rubber to tarmac, netting a best lap time of 1:01.872.
That may seem like nothing on paper, but when you start adding in the fact that time beats out times of the Ferrari 458 Italia, Ferrari 360 CS, Nissan GT-R Spec-V, Corvette ZR1, Lambo Gallardo, Porsche 911 GT2, and so on, you realize that this must be one beastly `Yota GT 86.

Full race tires are a hell of a drug. I know that many of those cars have -really- aggressive summer tires on them, but there is still a big difference between a DOT max performance summer tire and a slick racing tire.
I'd be much more interested in what the car would do on a max performance summer tire.
That said, still impressed.
