Sharing a Lexus LFA experience

motex · 02-23-2014, 01:17 PM

Hey guys, this thread does not belong to this forum, but I think it is worth to share with you car fans a great ride I got yesterday on a Lexus LFA here in our local track
I was on the passenger side, power and handling are just race car type, sound like an F1, seats 100% race seats and full carbon fiber all over including the steering wheel.
My friend is a professional driver (we raced last year the Nurburgring 24 hrs with a Japanesse team in a race edition LFA from Gazzoo Racing Team), now he has his own "toy" down here, a beautifull red LFA, so here I'm posting a picture and 2 Youtube links for you to enjoy
We did 2 hot laps because it really was a Lexus event, so we found a window of oportunity to take the car out on the track. My friend has also great experience drifting, he drifted the car on the longest curve called "lake curve" and he did it like a walk in the park, it was just amazing! This oportunities don't get to often that is why I'm sharing it here with all of you today

This picture shows the aluminum pedals

This short video is for the tachometer, it's like a "playstation" lol

This is one of the 2 hot laps we did, check out the drifting almost at the end of the video, crank up your volume it is worth it

Sorry, did not know I made it private, now is public for everyone, just let me know if you were able to see it.

that engine note is defiantly the best thing about the LFA, and some good driving to match

and the sound from the video clip does not make honor to the real sound believe me
