Market commentary
There was no beating the AAR Toyotas in 1991-92, winning 21 of the 27 races entered including 17 straight. The technology that was so daunting then is perhaps less esoteric today and fortunately AAR is around to help put this historic car back on track. It attracted great interest in the previews, and continued that interest into the bidding on Sunday evening.
