Toyota decided to use their new hybrid as a parade car at a Nascar event.

It broke down and was towed in by a GMC recovery truck...

They had to tow it in past the grandstand and apparently the crowd couldn't stop laughing...

Considering NASCAR fans and other teams haven't exactly been receptive to Toyota's entry into Nascar this was not exactly the sort of PR they wanted...

A foreign auto maker is always going to struggle to be accepted in a sport that has always been about domestics only and appeals to a very patriotic crowd.
