The modified hot hatch clinched the top spot in the Pocket Rocket category of Time Attack Italia
Italy-based Jochen Trettl is no stranger to EBC Brakes Racing’s acclaimed track/race braking products, having used RP-X pads to great success on his Porsche Cayman race car in the GT3 Challenge series this year.
When he’s not out with his Porsche, Trettl also competes in various rounds of Time Attack Italia, recently entering his newly acquired Toyota GR Yaris into the Monza leg of the championship.
As well as a raft of other modifications, the car proudly wears EBC Brakes Racing’s RP-X pads in its four-piston front calipers.
Falling within the ‘Pocket Rocket’ category, Trettl was pleased to walk away with first place in his class by the end of the weekend, also securing what he believes to be the fastest ever lap around Monza Circuit in a GR Yaris so far – a recorded time of 2:10.300.
What makes the achievement even more impressive is the fact that the car is still used as a daily driver by Jochen’s wife and children during the week, meaning there’s still plenty more potential left if he wishes to take things to the next level in the future.
