Lexus Test Driver
SC400, stock supension, 18"s with Z rated Yokohama AVS 100 rubber.
Last summer, cant remember exactly when, I opened the SC up on a deserted rural road (Hwy 1396 in Texas). Hit 125 before I decided to back down as there was a curve coming up. I need to take it to west Texas where the roads are long, straight, and empty. I'm definitely game to hit 140, but not until my TT brake upgrade is completed, and my bushings replaced. Maybe I should get one of those wings....

How fast?
Perhaps a better question for this forum would be how fast you have HONESTLY driven your Lexus. There's an old saying...don't believe everything you read.
My answer to this would be......fast enough to get me decently where I'm going and slow enough to keep my insurance.

Not everyone here claims things that haven't happened!

Now if someone comes on and says they hit 199 in their GS, then I'll be like
