The Yaris Club Concept is a top chopped tribute to the Toyota 7 race car that challenged the Group 7 category of the Can-Am racing series of the 1960s. Stripped down with no extras, this Yaris has been transformed into a single seater with no interior. It features a lowered windshield and fabricated tonneau cover while performance has been boosted via a supercharger, exhaust headers and a free-flowing exhaust. The suspension was lowered by two inches with front and rear coil-over shocks and larger brakes added.

FIVE AXIS DESIGN YARIS CLUB

The Yaris Club project pays tribute to Toyota's racing heritage harkening back to the late ‘60s when Toyota challenged for the Group 7 category of Can-Am racing with the Toyota 7.

The Yaris Club is a stripped-down, no-nonsense car with no extras - only what is needed to perform. The roof has been removed and the windshield lowered. With the interior removed, a tonneau was fabricated, turning the Yaris into a single seater with a fairing that doubles as a driver headrest.

A supercharger, exhaust headers and a free-flowing exhaust were added for performance to back up the good looks. The suspension was lowered by two inches with front and rear coil-over shocks and larger brakes added.

The Yaris Club was developed by Five Axis in Huntington Beach, Calif.
