Hiroyuki Koba passes his iPhone across the table to me. On the screen is a picture of a Toyota C-HR racing car. It"s VLN-spec, wearing slick tyres, lightweight wheels, a surfboard rear wing and a splitter so enormous it could deputise as a dining table."I"m racing it for the first time at the N rburgring this weekend", he smiles in cheery, broken English. "But it"s going to rain. Or snow". He checks the forecast. "Yes, look here. Thursday rain, Friday rain, Saturday er what is this?"Koba-san points at the lightning bolt symbol on the phone. "That"s thunderstorm", in English", I reply warily. "Oh, right. Good!" He returns to swiping through his gallery of photographs, most of which appear to be a selection of aero-laden racing cars he"s campaigned in Japan. Meet the chap who"s just set up Toyota"s new crossover.
