Toyota Sienna R-Tuned Minivan - One Lap of America - Autobahn Country Club

We caught up with the Toyota team to check out their tricked out Sienna R-Tuned Minivan during the 2016 One Lap of America race.
The lightweight, race-tuned custom van trims about 700lb off the stock Sienna SE, and gets racing suspension, brakes and tires, and a limited-slip diff, but still has a stock 3.5L V6 engine and 6-speed automatic transmission.
The Sienna R-Tuned went on to win its class for the overall race, and came in 20th out of 69 entrants overall, beating cars like a Porsche Cayman, Ford Mustang, Dodge Viper and Chevrolet Corvette.
One Lap of America is a modern day Cannonball Run, covering nearly 3,000 miles, with timed competitions at road courses, skid pads, autocross, and drag strips.

Toyota also entered a stock Sienna SE in the race just to prove that it's way more fun to drive than you might think.

Pitch the idea to Cleetus McFarland. He races Crown Vics and Ford Rangers so a minivan is right up his alley for one of his events.

I'm planning on tuning a minivan as a project car in the future, can't wait to see how far I can take it.

This reminds me of my paper route :P I drive a 2003 but it's still pretty much pedal down - I soooooooo wish I had something like this to work with esp with the extreme hills

That’s one fast swagger wagon.

About a 1:14 on the North Course, that's flyin for that mini-van

[@LightGesture]

I want to spec out my minivan. They're so much fun and they're such great economical vehicle.
Theyre like wagons, but compact low frame design. I love my Sienna. If this can't in manual, not electronic, i would be so thrilled! Bring back the Standard.

Is that front wheel driver or all wheel drive? That would be cool if they came AWD.

I don't know if that one is awd but it was an option.
