Default 2008 ISF vs 2015 RCF Multiple Rolls

So RC500 and I had a little fun this weekend with some highway rolls. I know these aren't the cleanest starts but number 3 with the three honks was a 60-120 roll race. You'll see the RCF pull at the end of these runs but I was getting out of it at 120 each time.
Enjoy.

PS these were filmed on a closed course.

Lexus should install horns in their cars.

Kind of hard to tell cause you guys didn't really line up and use your horns to start, but what's your opinion on how the RCF pulls? It has about 50 more HP but also weighs more than the ISF? Are you guys both stock? Looked fun though!

Very nice footage! lmfao! closed course...i think the IS was modded. I keep looking at the exhaust and it doesn't look like it has the stock diffusers...it sounds very good!

We're going to a at IFO drag race this weekend and running same bracket. Will get plenty of even starts there. My mods are PPE/JOEZ/RR RACING BAZOOKA EXHAUST. He's GT Haus exhaust dynod 415 wheels with a complete set carbon ceramic brakes which saves like 50 lbs I believe.

The runs were all pretty inconclusive, but from what I could tell the IS-F has the edge. Take them to the drag strip together and do some real comparisons and report back.

Same RCF





Same ISF same night but not lined up against each other. Hopefully next weekend we'll get head to head runs.
