LFA's short wheelbase and tiny length really makes it a fun car for auto crossing.

However, the track was damp and 553 HP is way too much power and torque for such a small circuit. You can see everytime he gets on the gas coming out of the corner, he goes through most of the straights sideways.

doesn't matter. just like other exotic cars, autox sounds a bit silly to me. those cars with the power belongs to track

Looks like a Lexus ride and drive event to me. Notice all the new ES and GS models lined up. Kind of looked like Scott Pruett driving too but could be wrong.

Nice video! I went to the GS event at Infineon and had the fastest time of the day so I got to ride in that yellow LFA- it was awesome.

I was supposed to receive a wireless stereo thing for winning but it never came .
