Toyota is set to enter its seventh consecutive 24 Hours of Nurburgring race, and competing this year will be a Lexus LFA and a GT86, both prepared by Gazoo racing.

2013 will mark the 41st running of the endurance race at the legendary German track where back in 2012, the LFA and GT86 both took home class wins. The venture is a partnership between Toyota and Gazoo racing, with Gazoo preparing the car and Toyota providing mechanics and drivers.
