Default Track day #19!!! Took the wife and father in law and had the best time ever!!

Just as the title says I took my wife out to the track and finally got to share what I love doing, with her. Was truly the best track day ever because I had the entire family there including the grandparents, and the kids !! My track time has made me a solid driver, but even more so because I can keep my wife laughing and can talk tons of **** while I'm driving Anyways. Hope you guys enjoy. Took down an M3 after 3 lap battle, ran with a Porsche, and managed to make my wife laugh her *** off.

Ps the language is not flowery. We were having the time of our life.

Also 2 McLaren 675LTs were on track and crashed into each other . You will see the cars off the track in session 1 part 2 .

I am proud to say that I am now fully in the green group/Advanced Drivers group/ pre race group . Even prouder to say that my wife had the guts to go out with me for her first ride in the most advanced drivers session and still had a great time . There are tons of events coming up but since I have been to 7 tracks over and over I'm shooting for the next track day to be special . I will be heading to Spring Mountain Raceway in Pahrump Nevada . This will make it 8 tracks, 3 states, and 20 track days for my ISF and me. Exciting track since it's pretty new and is the track for The Chevrolet driving academy for high performance GM cars. The track is world class and has like 20 different configurations !

Still chugging along and showing the world that Lexus built an amazing vehicle. In fact so amazing that most owners still have no idea what they own. F THE TRACK !! Get it out there and have some fun. This car is so much more than a show car and commuter .

Thanks for sharing and very cool. It is even better that your family was willing to share in your enjoyment.

Keep it up!
