Thumbs up SRT LexFest 2003, 1st Annual! New GS430!

What an experience and awesome time @ SRT today! 9/28. I was so impressed with SRT's dyno and testing facility, well organized event, foods were plentyful, Ice-cream @ the end of the day. Prizes are practical and decent. I also got to see for the first time how Dyno works.... 700HP plus for an IS300 Stage4 Turbo Charge???? I can't believe it until I saw with my own eyes today.... Check out the pictures!

PaulGS430, me and Djdelite were there representing GS guys from Club Lexus.

Pictures from SRT Meet!

This is a pic of Djdelite, new guy from Dover, DE. Brand New GS430 2003, Black/Black....



The car is beautiful! This picture can't give it justice!

Enjoy!

Default It was CRRAAZZYY!!

All in all it was a great day @ SRT yesterday! I've never seen so many tuned lexus' in one spot b4. Trust me folks, it was pretty SSSIIICCCKK out there! Great weather, good food, very well organized, and a very interesting Dyno challenge between PFS stage 3 is300 and SRT stage 4 is300. I almost won a $200 bet on that dyno but when the guy who was betting on the PFS saw the look on my face when I proposed the bet and said that I'd bet on the SRT, he recanted. Here's a pick of the dyno numbers posted.

Cool

The meet was excellent. Trust me I was overwhelmed with all the information.. The food and weather could not have been better. The members that Ive met thus far from CLub Lexus are real COOL.... I had the opportunity to follow down PaulGs430 an Chuckisc<<<<<THESE GUYS know there stuff about cars!!They also offered to help me change some lighting on my car which was cool... I hope to meet more members next time...Im surprised that alot of people were trying to hook up in Atlantic City. I know I would go cause im Casino junkie..

Djdelite,

Your BRAND NEW GS430 Black/Black was the show stopper bro! I love your car!!!! It was sweet to ride down to SRT in a pack of Lex like we did bro! Pick a weekend, come up to Philly and we'll swap out your bulbs/lens. NYC Meet coming soon, 10/12
