What i dont get about Scion Tc...
 

Why do i see so many of them in professional races?

whats the secret to them. Aren't they fwd?

my understanding must be lacking in something or some way ...

if its an sti, e36 m3, or sk2, i can understand but scion tc? isnt that like a corolla body or something?

im confuseeeed

wasnt there a 700hp tc @ the dbsport race off or something(later disqualified by broken axle), ken gushi drives the tc but with rwd conversion in formula d. i dont have anything against tc...good alternative to civic.

oh rwd conversion makes sense. but isnt it easier to work with a rwd to start off?

and their roofs explode

Scion tCs are cool if you're a girl.

FWD can be made fast for road racing with enough money.

omg! i thought i was the only who thought it was a chick car!

wasn't it supposed to take place of the Celica in Toyota's line up? my only problem with the Scions is that they were fuel-savers until T-yota dropped the 2.4L and lots of kids jumped on the ricer bandwagon; so now they're irritating and still not that fast.

alot of the race TC's get converted to rear wheel drive and get toyota 6 cylinder turbo motors (supra) super light... major horsepower

^ that answered my question. thank

The Scion TC is a good racing platform

In my opinion FWD isn't so bad when it comes to road racing. Look at the SCCA World Challenge series for Touring Class. FWD cars are dominating.

The TC is a fairly well balanced chassis to begin with and feels fairly quick and nimble even in stock form. I'm not too surprised they're proving to be a good base for racing.

And FWD isn't necessarily slow... its just not as fun to drive ;)
