12.0 last year on street tires, which was not easy and I really wanted to hit 11's. Lots of low 12's that day with mediocre 60' times as it was a very fine line between losing grip and not enough throttle. In cold temps with no sun to help heat up the track on street tires, its really difficult even with excellent track prep.

Do you use auto at the strip or shift with the paddles?

Wow, 4.2 0-60 and 12.7 in the quarter. That's pretty quick for bone stock on stock tires. They must have had ideal test conditions and a great driver that day. Does anyone know what the fastest bone stock time has been for this car? 12.7 has to be pretty close.

Road and track had the same time to 60, but a 12.6 in the quarter
Quickest stock (magazine) times that I've seen

btw, it is quite amazing to me how fast this car is with just headers, exhaust, let alone dropping drag radials on it....wow!

Hello Everybody,
I just purchased a 2008 Lexus ISF with 95k miles. Bought it off the original owner. He was an older gentleman/doctor who seemed to take excellent care of. He only had it serviced at Lexus. That said, it is bone stock and to my knowledge it was pampered all it's life. I took it to the track last night and my best time was 14.321 @103MPH. My shift points were right at 6,900RPM. I did try it in auto mode and I ran a 14.561 @98MPH. It was always in Sport mode. From what I am reading this car should be pushing out much more. Any ideas? Age of car? Driver? I am a bit disappointed in the car so I am hooding either I am doing something wrong or something is going wrong with the car.

Maybe it's time for another age poll
Last one was done 9 years ago. https://www.clublexus.com/forums/is-...-f-owners.html
I would bet at least half the respondents from the previous poll are probably not ISF owners any more.
