Has anyone ever seen an SC doing Gymkhana? I have to be honest and say I don't know much about Gymkhana, I think its pretty new, as the only forums i can find on it don't even have a section for my region in the US. I just saw a video on YouTube of Ken Block I believe, that was the sickest driving video I've ever seen.
Would the SC be a good car for it? or would its weight and not having AWD be a constraint on its abilities? I just want to see a car as sexy as the SC driving like this.

And for those who don't know what Gymkhana is or want to see the video, here it is:

the sc wouldnt be that great at all. even with big power you need to shed a lot of weight. i doubt anyone is going to do anyways. most lexus owners here are worried about getting salt on their car when driving in mild snow. i cant even imagine what they would do to them selves if god forbid you put a scratch on the SC

A local auto-slalom club runs a few races during the summer that are incredibly technical. Needless to say, I ran several. Soarers are useless for it. USELESS. For tight courses the car is too chunky. Even with fat S tires, 3600lbs of big green angry and a proper driver could barely hold its own.

Open GT type tracks on the other hand, with a proper setup the car can be rather competitive, even with full trim.

So a car that weighs 2300lbs vs 3600lbs...... so, no?








Really, take your SC out. Its a blast. You will not be competitive unless you cut your car down to nothing.

That's not gymkhana. That's a big ****ing course he's playing around on.

Look up GRIP video and their Gymkhana documentary on youtube. That's real gymkhana.
I've seen a Soarer doing some gymkhana. It was a small, short, un popular video on youtube as well.

Very nice. We used to occasionally have some car clubs run this kind of competition at the giant parking lot in the middle of the Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez racing course in Mexico City. Always a lot of fun.
