Default Lexus IS F on track

Hi guys

On 12/12/09, I took my F to the legendary Sepang F1 circuit in Malaysia.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wi1EPUYZ5cA

This is it it was my first lap, so i pitted early to get a diagnostics of my suspension setup etc

I posted a times of 2:30, 2:22, 2:15 and finally a flying 1:59 in the end.

needless to say, my PS2s were dead by the end of it.

Malaysia's first ISF.

OutCaster, that was just my second lap on track and at that point of time, the Car was good but i needed to set up my suspension,
I have Tein SCs with EDFC (i can set 16 levels of firmness, 0 being the hardest 16 being the softest) and i needed better feedback on the firmness. I went out with 0/0 front and rear settings and on sports mode i found that it was far from ideal.

I changed the setting after to 2f, 4 rear setup and it was much better. Also had to warm brakes by then
