GR Yaris gives a Porsche 718 GT4 a run for its money on the Nürburgring!

  • Very good day to be on track, dry weather with not too much cold. Taking a friend made in the parking lot for his first quick lap around the Nürburgring with the GR Yaris. The semi-slick tires were warmed up and the brakes were also performing at their peak! Unfortunately some drivers don't know when to get out of the way despite being clearly signaled to do so. It was still nice to see the GT4 move around but I wish the driver was more respectable and would have gotten out of the way at some point. Enjoy!

      The driver may be better (or more willing to take risks) on slower corners. But the Porsche tends to be getting held up by traffic and leaves him behind on the straights.

    this reminds me of my days driving an Acura RSX Type-S at the track at Thunderhill. I was behind a stock FD RX-7 and would catch up in the turns easily. But then in the straights he would blast off, just for me to catch up again in the corners. And he refused to let me pass and ignored the point by's by the organizers. Point is, power isn't everything if all you can do is go fast in a straight line. So I love this video.

      You're glad you never got a GT4? Really? So instead you want to get some little hatchback. I smell BS. By the way Mr BS, the Porsche is nearly a minute faster around the ring than the little Toyota. Even my 718 GTS destroys the Yaris on track - I've had a few in my mirrors, but not for long.

      That’s a 718 with aero, not a GT4, and you’re fully of crap because nobody on this planet, would pass up a GT4 for some stupid Toyota. You probably didn’t have the panache to even get a GT4 slot anyway. Not if you passed it up. You’d have to have tons of dough and a multi Porsche customer just to SMELL a GT4 much less pass one up. You’d would have already had several 911s to get a GT4 allocation, so no way in hell would you want some Toyota anything
