I am referring to the last video @ 3:16; the IS-F got smoked, but it held up respictively. Not too shabby for a 4 door! Thanks for sharing!

Nice find. For a car that was not designed to be a drag car, the LFA does OK. The road course is where it really shines.

Default USB LF-A vs USB IS-F

Ran into this video http://youtu.be/8z-IKZGXKN4 don't know if anyone else has seen it yet. The video is primarily of USB LFA running on road course in Europe with all kinds of high performance cars and exotics but half way Thur video they match up against USB IS-F. It pretty cool to see these two Lexus cars running against each other and to my surprise the IS-F does ok, it hangs in there with LFA around this road course.
