Few machines in racing history have commanded such awe and fear as the Toyota Eagle MkIII. It wasn't just a car; it was a leviathan, an aerodynamic juggernaut that redefined downforce and devoured the IMSA GTP championship with the ferocity of a starving beast. This isn't your typical story of speed and horsepower; it's a saga of daring innovation, mind-bending physics, and a car so potent it practically extinguished the very category it raced in.

I just seen it today it was a beautiful pice of art I couldn’t believe how tiny the cockpit was. The livery was so beautiful
Toyota have done so much in motorsports, up there with the best. 👍💪✌
ah yes the 4 tonnes downforce monster
Jup sorry for the reupload :D
@@ChrisVSCars thats fine men. keep up the good work
First time I've heard of fate being described as a faecal mistress.
Have a painting of this machine on my bedroom, looks fantastic
I have a few, too. Zillions of photos; some with Dan, Juan and PJ. I had dinner with these guys once at Watkins Glen.
I love what you said, "Mindbending physics!" 😁😎
❤❤❤❤❤
The Toyota Eagle was magnificent.
Downforce - around 10,000 lbs. at 200mph.
1,100+-horsepower. (The honest figure.)
Power came from a highly-boosted, production-based 2.1-litre 4-cylinder engine. (2100cc).
142 psi of boost. 10,000 RPM.
1829 lbs.
Dominated the series.
Could this car outperform the Peugeot 905 if put side-by-side with equally skilled platinum drivers?
hmmm, idk but the toyota stats are theoretically much better than the Peugeot in comparison, so yea it can out perfom
It probably depends on the track. The typical US tracks that ISMA raced on at the time required monstrous amounts of downforce for the fastest times. The tracks that FIA raced at like Le Mans, Spa, and Monza are typically low-downforce tracks with aerodynamic balance biased towards the rear. At the tighter tracks, I'd put money on the Eagle to put down faster laps.
