1. Rutledge Wood wins Toyota Pro/Celebrity Race
in Scion FR-S!
Although we already knew that the N Charlotte Scion FR-S was an amazing sports car, this was
proved when Rutledge Wood drove this vehicle into first place at the Pro/Celebrity Race! Woods
is a Fox Sports commentator and the host of the History Channel’s Top Speed. Celebrities and
pros driving these N Charlotte Scion made for a very interesting race!
There was some tough competition, as this year’s race was nose to nose! Woods fell behind
early in the race, but eventually came back and passed everyone up for the win. He won at
$10,000 donation from Toyota to his chosen charity Victory Junction. Toyota will also donate
$5,000 to Racing for Kids for each participant. Adam Carolla, last year’s winner, took first place
for the pros.
The N Charlotte Scion FR-S hits the tracks
Although Woods won the checkered flag, he couldn’t have done it without the N Charlotte Scion
FR-S! This new Scion was named the official vehicle of the Toyota Pro/Celebrity Race, which is
the first time a rear-wheel-drive sports car was chosen to be the designated race car! Each of
the 25 race cars were prepared identically for all of the racers, but some changes were made to
the Scion FR-S in N Charlotte to get it ready to race in the big leagues One of the most
important changes was the added strength giving them 210 horsepower! Special equipment
was also added for better performance like a Centerforce single disk racing clutch, front
MacPherson struts and rear double wishbone suspension! To continue the transformation,
Toyota Racing Development features were added including:
2. Stainless steel exhaust for better performance and to give it that heart-pumping sound!
Coil-over shocks and springs for better absorbency when hitting a bump.
Great brake kit including Hawk Performance brake pads for high quality braking.
Performance air intake to increase the aerodynamics.
Larger 18-inch wheels to support the speed these race cars go!
Scion FR-S in N Charlotte gives you performance!
Even without these changes, the Scion FR-S will give you the performance you need! It has 200
horsepower, which is not too far off from the race cars used in the big event. It also gives you
the option of an automatic or manual transmission. Adding to the amazing performance of this
new Scion is its lightweight design and four-cylinder front-mounted boxer engine that allow
superior maneuverability! Also, like the versions used in the races, this sports car is rear wheel
drive, giving it better handling.
