What motorsport would you like to see Lexus in?

ALMS. Lexus would complete against Ferrari, Corvette, BMW, and many other of the other top sports car manufacturers to directly communicate to their largest market (the USA) that Lexus = Performance. Also, with the ALMS's partnership with the ACO and 24 Hours of Lemans, we'd get to see how (presumably) the LFA would perform against the world's best in a variety of settings - street, endurance, and 24 hour endurance.

My top votes are for ALMS, WTCC and WSC simply because these are avenues where the F Performance and F-Sport can shine. When you are racing amongst the best out there, Porsche, BMW, Ferrari and etc, you can show the world Lexus is a winner and they do have the titles to prove it. Who wouldn't want to see LFA going toe to toe against Ferraris or IS F's passing up M3's and CTS-V's on the track. F-Sport and the F marque are great but they can be even better supporting winning Lexus platforms.
As far as drifting, sure it looks cool to get the car to go sideways..but when your competition is lower end more mainstream cars like 240SX 370Z, AE86 Corolla, Camaro, Mustang and Scion tCs....i'm not too sure thats a good image for Lexus.

Definitely ALMS and WTCC. Only those will do for Lexus, due to the connection ALMS has to the ACO.
Toyota is back at Le Mans, so it only makes sense to see Lexus at WTCC and ALMS. Would love to see them ideally race some LFAs.

Definitely WTCC, ALMS, FIA GT1, DTM.
Having the IS in wtcc and the IS F in DTM would be sheer awesomeness and giving that LFA GTE Toyota Motorsports GmbH has been working on some exercise in GT1 and ALMS would be truly EPIC.
Would be nice to see them "back" in F1 one of these days though. Maybe as an engine supplier when the engine formula changes?
