Could explain, the sudden dropping of Frosty for next year and the signing of a young gun replacement.
Charlie Forklifts might have some extra dollars from Toyota to lure a driver, and the Toyota name as an incentive to get ADP on board. It seemed a bit funny at the time for ADP to leave DJR, to go Team18. |

How the Supra looks now (as in the announcement) is how it will race, Toyota won’t allow their car looking like a joke. |

The glasshouse was the frame, but everything else including the droop snoot, was 100% for performance gain. the Supra anyway can just be scaled up and kept in proportion, it's proportions are not massively different to the other 2 cars, unlike trying to squish a 2 door car over frame built for a 4-door car. |

It would have been good for Toyota to run a supped up original Supra engine, I get they are kinda promoting the Tundra, but original would have been better and maybe encouraged other manufacturers to come in

Wonder if the ‘works’ cars will be 100% factory backed & branded…
Like the old TTA days, trade sponsors only.. |
