\nToyota<\/a>‘s pulled out of F1, but that doesn’t mean the company has lost its will to win with cutting edge tech. Rumors suggest it’s dusting off the underpinnings of the Hybrid Supra HV-R<\/a> it used to win the Tokkachi 24-Hour race two years ago, and staring at the 24 Hours of Le Mans with a glint in its eye.<\/p>\n

The Supra HV-R used a 473-horsepower V8 that gets help from regenerative braking, a quick-charging capacitor, and three additional electric motors: two in the front wheels, one in the back of the car. Toyota would need to upgrade the tech, prep the car for the GT1 class, and test it, so a 2012 race entry is hypothesized were such a thing to happen. <\/p>\n

As far as we’re concerned, anything that could lead to bringing back a Supra — even if only in race trim to begin with — is all right with us. Especially one with 473 horses, gobs of torque and a date with the Mulsanne straight. Toyota, please do this…<\/p>\n
