It's great to finaly see an automotive review.
Very nice review Dave. Thanks for taking the time to make this one.

A little useless info: Vitz (Although with an S) means joke (As in a joke) in Danish.

I am currently working on a review as well.

It's called Toyota Yaris in most of Europe.

In several European countries, there is/ was a Toyota Yaris racing class, and some have been brave enough to try to recreate such a racer.

A racing class of this sewing machine would be fun and probably easy to do.
Imagine watching that! It reminds me of the difference between go-carts and NASCAR. :-)

Racing Class, I guess they put the hamster on steroids. :-)
As soon as I clear a little off the work bench, I'm looking forward to building this. A nice simple easy out of the box curbside.
