Finally we can see what this car can do against other cars....

 

99% sure I'll be attending. Been trying to catch a WannaGoFast race the past year.

check the corner of the hood! from beginning to the end of the video! wonder if that is alot of drag on the car.

 

Yep! Looking through my old videos, it also happened before the supercharger too. Going at 130+ MPH, there's a lot of air pressure coming in but not exiting out fast enough. The hood hinge still looks normal and not deformed or anything.

 

Well, we know that the OEM hood is good for up to the factory MPH limited top speed...and from the video it confirms it I am sure Lexus R&D testers had the RCF in the wind tunnel for consist 174mph wind for an extended time...sure they went above that, too, before releasing the car to the general public for sale. And I would safely assume Lexus has great QC. Above 174, you take the risk on yourself. Best to have some extra safeguards in place

 

I thought the stock RCF's were supposed to do 174? Am I missing something here, are did you just do it QUICKER! GL at the track this weekend, keep us posted

 

Lol I don't think they fully tested the RCF, the secondary flap on the intake sucks up all the hot air in the engine and shoots the intake air temperatures up to 9 degrees at WOT, it supposed to get cooler not hotter!! That's a design flaw right there!

Thanks! I'll be sure to get some good runs in! It's limited at 174 MPH the moment, nothing a reflash won't fix

 

Did you request them not to remove the 174 limiter? I thought the tune for the SC automatically came with the limiter removed but guess maybe that is an option.

 

Good luck this weekend Tucker, hope the rain holds out.

If if you see a black c7 z06 with custom plates, it's my boy Ben. Run him. Show him what th Lex is made of!!!
