Lexus Takes 1-2 Super GT Finish at Fuji

Hell yes! I actually did laps at Fuji a few years back, and it's an amazing circuit. Killer that Lexus was able to defend its home turf. Head here for more pics and details on the race!

the LC500 race cars pretty much have nothing in common with the production road cars... they are gt500 spec'd machines with 2.0L 4 cylinder turbos putting out way more power than the road car 5.0L v8.
