Hey, did you get to slam the LS Sport around the track? I'm interested to hear how that car handled.

Thanks guys for all the kind words (and hilarious comments! ). It really was one hell of an event, IMO onne of the better Lexus events to date. No crowds, and the chance to see what the cars are made of on a road course. I do miss the food but snacks and water wasn't bad so I can't really complain.

Thumbs up

^^^I love that spiderman pic

Too bad you couldn't take the LS sport around the track

OMG, even if I get to sit in the LFA, I would need the amber lamp BEFORE getting on the track

Nice write up on the LF-A.....glad you enjoyed yourself.

Have you driven...or ridden.....in a Nissan Skyline/GT-R yet? I just wonder how that feels in comparison.

I take it you were on a smooth surface most, if not all of the time. Did you get to try the IS-F on bumpy surfaces? I'm sure you remember, from my review, my previous commments on how stiff the suspension is. Maybe (?) Lexus has eased up on the damping and spring rates a little since then (that was 2 years ago)...I heard some talk about that being a possibility.
