Default EVENT: Lexus IS-F Invitational on April 25 in Joliet

April 25th - Lexus IS-F Invitational
Autobahn Racetrack - Joliet, IL

All current and future Lexus and IS-F Owners are invited to the Spring Invitational located at the Joliet Racetrack on April 25th. They will have several IS-F's available for show and for drive. Come take a look at what the new Lexus looks like and have a chance to compare notes with some pro drivers.


You must contact James at least 2 weeks ahead of time so he can get you on the list and able to get in. He has a registration form for you to fill out that he can help with.

I'll be there, hopefully I'll get to meet some of you there.

Thanks! I was at McGrath Lexus and they where telling me about this. Assuming its the same and said with my car as is they would allow me to drive the ISF. I was told they are being selective as to who they let drive and stuff but i am very interested.

Thanks for the info!

I'm not familiar with the US 66 Dragway. Can you send me the address? Also, do you think I could get an invite?

What kind of event is this? Drag racing, or track event? Is it just a chance to drive an IS-F spiritedly?? Thanks

It is very strange for them to be holding this and then have the same event a two or three weeks later. Can't wait for the AM session, hope the weather holds out.
