Default Lexus LFA event at Laguna Seca, August 2012

Just wanted to drop a note here about a Lexus LFA event which will be taking place at Laguna Seca in late August. As I grew up in the area and Laguna Seca is one of my favorite tracks in the world, I'll certainly be attending. I think this will be similar to past driving school events such as those at Infineon. I will update this post as I get more details.

Cannot wait to see videos of the event.

I really hope Nurburgring edition LFA will be ripping it up at Laguna Seca. I am sure it can be the quickest production car ever on that track.

That is awesome that they will ship the car for you.

Make lots of videos of your laps around Laguna Seca. I am sure it will be lots of fun.

Default RSVP sent and accepted

I'm going, yay!

Yes, Lexus is graciously shipping personal cars at their expense. That's so cool. I can't say enough good things...

Did you get them to include the maintenance after your track runs? The LFA mechanics should be there to work on the corp's cars anyways right?

Yes, technicians will be there to check out all the cars before and after the track, and fueling/detailing is included. Just hope I don't burn through a set of tires because I doubt they cover that...

As of last evening, 19 personal vehicles were registered in addition to the three corporate LFAs available. It will be amazing to see so many LFAs together on one track!
