Default RC-F Burnout

I seen several online and written reviews saying you can not do a standstill burnout because Lexus engineer designed that way. Watch the following video at near the end (6:10) and you can see the burnout from standstill. Maybe the other reviewers never enable the un-name mode that turns off all the nannies.


Chu....

ps. Counting down to Feb 4th arrival of my RC-F

The only mention of the "no burn out" clause was at the First Media / Press Event last year @ Monticello Raceway in NY.

Where the hearsay was that modified ECU's were implemented on the preproduction RC F's


Other than my IS F with E LSD can do the same exact burnout

THAT looked good... thx for the share!

PS. These guys actually have some attitude AND a sense of humor as opposed to other reviewers out there. Reminds me of Jeremy Clarkson from Top Gear - Whatever happened to that show after the Burma special anyway?
