For 20 years, Toyota Sports Corner (TOSCO), the motorsports division of Toyota, was winning races globally with many trophies held and several records set by its driver. In 1979, it was time to give the winning global brand an overhaul to capitalize on the success; TOSCO changed to Toyota Racing Development — and TRD was born. Not only did TRD support racing across the world, but they were also put in charge of improving performance on production vehicles. They developed a line of performance-oriented accessories for vehicles that interested Toyota owners and racing enthusiasts across the globe. For the next 40 years, TRD would continue to secure their place in the racing world, build impressive performance parts and even began to race in NASCAR. The accolades kept coming and the Toyota racing development team keep pushing themselves to do more and better. What will the next 40 years bring? Well, for now it’s a celebration.
