Default South Carolina Lexus owners...where u at?

Through CL here I've already met one cool guy, but figured I'd throw out the righthand so to speak and say hello to all those in the local Greenville/Spartanburg/Columbia/Anderson/Clemson areas.

I'm in Greenville, SC...but all those in the surrounding areas stop in and say hi. If there's ever any events (car shows/ dyno days/ auto-x) around here, let me know. If you have a local club I just don't know about, inform me. I like to dabble in drag racing at Greer Dragway at times, and love to eat or cook my own good food! So anytime anyone is up for a meet at somewhere good (example : Quaker Stake), I'd down.

Just a test, but whom has "truly driven" up and down Ceasar's Head? How'd the stock brakes feel by the time you were at the bottom? Very curious as I plan to run the thing this summer.

Thanks all!

Dan

Perhaps something involving a trip up to Caesars Head. Always a fav of mine when doing meets. About 30 minutes away from DT Greenville.

Definitely something you would like to do for sure. Beautiful scenery on the drive to the base, challenging curvy roads up and down, and two viewing points (bald rock & at the top of Caesars Head).

Here's a look-see at the road itself :

Not from South Carolina, but I'm in Asheville, so I ain't too far away, and I've had to go down to Greenville to the Lexus dealership recently. If y'all were closer, I'd suggest Deal's Gap, since it's legendary, but it's probably pretty far for y'all.

Asheville to Caesars Head is a close drive...actually it's closer than Columbia. LOL!

We've gotta plan something. I'll start checking the calendar this weekend for openings.

Well, I just got my Lex in April...so I wasn't really on here posting until after that point.

So you actually race the Lex or just spectate? I plan on racing at some point. Perhaps you saw me there last year in my flat black Civic hatch?

Anyhow, like I PM'd you...perhaps we can pull together a local meet, something including food, photos, and fun. LOL!

It's only about 40-45 mins for me. If y'all ever want to go, hit up I26 and I'll meet up with y'all where it passes through Asheville.

I looked that up, and I think it's about an hour for me. Any weekends besides this next one and maybe the one after, would be great for me to meet up with y'all.
