It was awesome to see everyone again, new and old faces!

The event was like wringo said a red carpet event, I have tons of pics and will have to upload them..it'll take some time.

I was able to drive the is-f full out no holds barred, some members even had the skills to drifted the is-f (meterro: good job!!)

You name it, we did it, race, chat, eat, relax, take pics, race some more, chat some more...We were treated like kings, IS-F special watch giveaway... they had catering, great hospitality. All is one small 8-5pm event. WE NEED MORE EVENTS LIKE THIS.

There were so many aspects of the event...just the track on fri night, seeing bluelex and 1sicklex make a coupl passes.. and we got some spy photos of the is-f's b4 we raced the next day. The full driving day with the is-f AND warm up cars,...not to forget the team lecxus car, and the special toyota from mr. zinn's collection...then JUSTIS and myself perched up on turn 5and6 takking pics as the Is-f zoom'd and DRIFTED by, smoke and all On top of alll of this we were organized and went to daisy dukes, by this point I was tired. Some guys after dinner went for the cruise in ft. laud I went home...

Bottom line:
Anyone who missed out on this event, you missed out BIG time, once in a LIFETIME experience, sure there will be more performance inspired events down the line, they all will be based on the orginal...this past weekend...and based on the respnses of THIS event!!!!

(one day this week, ill do a more detailed review)

Go speed racer! Go speed racer!

Thanks to evryone who helped out with the event and showed up to it!

FYI Big things for july summer 08 put it on your calendars!

Josh,
Thanks for the complement, and it was a blast to drift the IS-F, highly impressed with the new and improved VDIM.

Great to see everyone out at the event. Aaammmazing event put by Lexus! HUGE props goes out to them.

I just got back, lol!! I left at 5:30 and pulled in a little before 2 pm..

What a WEEKEND, I had so much fun before the event, during the event and after the event.

Big ups to the CL Florida gang, yall are a class act. (who knows how the drive!!).


Pics and vids to come!

 

How special was the watch rolex?? LOL

 

Great weekend! Wringo pretty much summed it up perfectly moment by moment. Track night was great. Small turnout but Fun. The IS-F event was a can't miss event. If you didn't come you really missed out bad. Lexus really through it down and let us just rip the hell out of these cars. I can't thank Mario,Josh, and Dennis for finally convincing me to go for the test drives. It was a rush to lay into these cars. Than the fun run where you get taken for a drive by their pro drivers was just insane. Mike,Eric, and Kofie are true troopers for driving down from GA to hang out this weekend, you guys are the best. I think we were on 2-3 hours sleep the whole weekend.

Like wringo said the drives to and from Davie FL were the most fun. Eric, Mike, Terry, Mario, Wringo and I just flat out owned everything that came near us, anything. Not bad for a Show/trailer Queen huh Mike?


It was great seeing all the old faces again and meeting the new ones aswell.

 

Awesome event! My only complaint is that I won a "guy's" watch and not a "girl's" watch LOL Think I could trade it in for.......

 

Idea:i save it for the summer 08 raffle!!! WINK WINK

 

Adrian, Joaquin, Shannon, Josh, Rudy, Terry, Ed, Steve, Clive, Wayne, Wringo good to see you guy's again and Mike, Eric, Kofie its was nice to have you come down all the way from "A-Town". Nice to meet you too Smooth 1.

The weather was perfect and Lexus stepped it up BIG TIME! This had to be one of the best weekends I have had in a while. Driving and hearing those IS-F's rip down the track and drifting them around the corners was awesome. Like Mike said "The IS-F is the real deal" (I still think I will turbo mine if I get one though..lol)

The ride out of Moroso was fun. You see what an open stretch of road can do when you have power to let loose. (Those dotted lines on the road turned solid real quick)

Then after we got cleaned up and headed to Daisy Dukes, it was a free for all with ownage happening everywhere. (at least for the boosted peeps) They didn't know what hit them! Definitely a very quick 45 mile trip to go eat.

We have to plan something like this again...

 

I 100% agree,

Mario,
It was some awesome and memorable sitting up on turn 5 taking picture and just shootin the breeze, take it easy bro ill be in touch with you soon about the summer event, if you could start talking to KAW and just giving him the heads up or the FYI! Hell yeah lets do another driving experience event, we've been missing that aspect of our event/smeets and now its on our faces! Can't wait to see those pics that you took!

for more lexus driving events!

Real quick, I have to echo what everyone has said about this past weekend. The IS-F was absolutely incredible, the power, the handling and the styling. You've seen pics but its nothing like seeing it in person and hearing that exhaust from inside and outside of the car. The performance is not what I expected; it exceeded all of my expectations. In regards to the Lexus 'Big Ups'!! They treated us very well, and didn't hold us back on trying out the IS-F.

In short is was nice meeting everyone and seeing some familiar faces. I want to say it was great meeting some of the CL members and putting a face to the names: Mario, Adrian, Pete, Josh, Adam, Romi, Darryl, Terry, Ed, Janquin, Eric, David, Kofie, Mike, and many others. If I didn't mention your name I'm sorry, I'm bad with names for real. I'm surprised I remember this many. You Florida guys never miss an opportunity to show how great you guys are.

I want to say THANKS a big THANKS to Adrian for putting us up and all. You're a class A+ guy; I really appreciated that, but I've should have known, you're chillin in FL and you're originally from Jersey. BIG UP's to the Tri-State area . NY representer!!! As some have mentioned, pic and vids are to come.

 

I can't stop smiling about this weekend. I had sooo much fun. I'm definitely going to drive my car next time, so I can get in on the fun. The highway runs were the best. Great meeting everyone. Mario, Adrian, Daryl, Terry, Roman, and others. WE have to do it again!

 

Yeah guys, I think back to that day, doin laps in a brand new ISF, talking cars and hanging with the best bunch of people.I had a blast, and even though driving the ISF was the highlight and an awsome expereince, seeing everyone there and meeting new people definatley made the trip even more memorable.
I have shown that video of the lap from inside the car to some of my friends, and they comment on the huge grin on my face as we are watching it. I tell them that they should have seen the grin while I was really driving it then, and when I got out of the car!!!!

 

lol i guess ima little late on this post but i wana say it was an awesome evening.. never rolled out like that with a bunch of fellow gs's...
i have no idea how u guys remember names, but everyone i met was real cool. i wish i made it to the moroso isf test drive.
