Anyone take their isx50 lapping???
just wondering if there were any people that have gone lapping in their cars?
Ive done it twice over the last summer had a blast in the car i have a is250 auto the only issue i ran into is that the 250 brakes are horribly undersized for a big car lapping i had them glowing in about 6-8 laps
other than that the car is soo well balanced and the HSD coilovers worked extremely well
I was driving my n/a rx7 and my gf was driving the IS

I went to the racetrack a few weeks ago, but only as a spectator. Got sunburned and slightly deaf afterwards. Here are a few pics, no Lexus though.

the IS is such an easy car to do lapping with, my rx7 is a handful by comparison lol

Perhaps I'll hit a couple local events next year after some new toys are added to the 350.
