I've been an occasional customer at Fensport, they have done some stuff for me, now have an itch to head back to get further suspension tweaks.. So got browsing their website and happen upon the following.. Their new project car (full spec of what they have done and plan on the blog):

No, it's a car they bought from a Toyota dealer, now converting to a track car...

It's used in the Toyota Sprint Series (TSS) and the Japanese Sprint Series (JSS) here in the UK. This car has already had a few mishaps in early competition but is back up and running again.

This was their last competition car (as they have a long running relationship with Toyota):

The most interesting thing about that is the coilovers. Of all the quality brands available in the UK Fensport chose to go with MCA and not even their top model.
Both weird and interesting and a win for MCA.

I was hoping to make a trip this side of the new year, but now looks unlikely.. Let's see how the Yaris evolves over the coming few months, I hope to see it (fingers crossed) Spring next year.
