Mmm.....Sounds interesting enough.

Guess it's time to kart pocky over to Formula D on April 7th!

If it's a Lexus Corp thing, I'm sure the car will be extensively modified in regards to transmission & e-brake. *cough* Team Lexus IS350.

You can but it just makes it easier to do if you can use a little e-brake, but my guess is they modified it to a handlever..

Hey Ray

I'll be going for sure..
My wife got me reserved seating tickets...

I wouldn't be surprised to see an IS350 Drift car at this event.

Afterall, the weekend after is the Toyota Grand Prix of Long Beach...

You can check out the thread I made here:

Formula D - Who's going? Round 1: Streets of Long Beach



See you there if you go..

Joe Z

(p.s. -> to CL Mods I am not affliated to Formula D in anyway, just pulled the info from their site)
