look at all these expert race car drivers who act like they drive the car daily lmao shut the hell up unless you got 400,000 grand to pay for what you'd tear up driving it like idiots
So many idiots making comments about him shifting too early. Those same idiots, given the same chance to drive this car, would have probably slammed it into a wall with their derrrp derrpp face. It's easy to make comments about his driving while you sit here behind a computer. Maybe he didn't want to look like a fool for crashing a $400k car by trying to driver it harder than he was capable of. It wasn't his car. Maybe he would have drove it harder if it was.
God. What a bunch of know-it-all dickheaded comments. First of all, read the title. AVERAGE MAN drives the Lexus LFA. So, right there, we are not expecting him to have the racing skills of Jackie frickin' Stewart. Secondly, he has to follow the Lexus rep in the IS-F around the track, not drive it flat out like some teenager on acid. So he is kind of limited in how fast he can go. Third, it's his FIRST TIME driving the car! It's not like he is already familiar with it, or anything.
@TatankaTracker...Thanks for 'getting it'... I get a laugh from reading people's comments. You should see all the ones I have to remove for being hateful and insulting. Welcome to the Internet :D
@nytmstr exactly.. lol i just drove a 2010 camaro ss with 1010 hp to the crank on 295. hit 160 like 4 times lol and these guys party about hitting 100. haha
Wow. Granny shifting a high revving V10 with a SMG, annnnnd best of all, the way you switch up your position on your steering wheel when going around corners is just plain sad. Racing 101, NEVER switch up your position on your steering wheel ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU'RE CORNERING.
@Purepromedia SMG is bmw OLD transmission... single hydro-actuated clutch... new one is DCT. This is a single clutch I believe too but not called SMG.
@Kyu1LL There are no V10 DCT's apart from the one and only BMW E60 M5 2010 DCT in BMW's M headquarters. SMG isn't trade marked, it stands for sequential manual gearbox which is what this is. Single hydro-mechanical actuated clutch. DCT or DKG there all the same crap, Dual Clutch transmission. All made by the same company.
@Purepromedia really? that's interesting. I've never heard of anyone using smg except referring to bmws. Well the new Lambo Aventador is DCT V10 and you got the M6 too but I'm sure you know about that since the engine is the same as the M5. Yeah, they're all the same. Even PDK... which is a million letters.... haha. All I know is MY dual clutch is made by Borg Warner.
@Kyu1LL Yes, even people reference F1 boxes as SMG's or sequential manual gearbox. AFAIK, BMW uses ZF auto boxes in nearly all of their mid-to high end cars. But the M3 uses a Getrag DCT. DCT is nice and all, but I still prefer the lurches of SMG, just feels more "mechanical" :)
@Purepromedia that's why it took so long for lambo to switch over... same reason. I haven't had the chance to drive a "smg" car, so I would not know what it feels like.
@vaos I'm stating the obvious that you do not have a supercar and that you're just some punk talking sh*t like you know how to drive around a track, when all you've been doing is play Need for Speed or make donuts in an empty parking lot with your Toyota Corolla.
@mmutasim2 I'm not asking him to drive like Schumacher, but try to push the car and see what you can get out of it. If you've driven sportscars on a track you know that what I listed are standards for going around the track and getting to know a car at its best. You don't see any high concrete walls when driving into the corners?
@ScommyWommy He's driving a million dollar supercar that has a V10 engine rated at 552HP,with less than a thousand made....for the first time. You want him to drive like Schumacher down that track?
Tendrías que ser un pendejo por pagar esa cantidad por un carro que su capo de motor se detiene con una varilla la cual tienes que ensamblar cuando abres el motor, una llave de encendido con control remoto de cajita sin estar incorporado a la llave y tienes que insertar la llave paras retar el botón
He hasnt even felt half the power of the car.Next time get someone who isnt scared to drive the car.........he drives more tamed than my mother......such a sissy!!!
It's too bad people like you get the chance to drive these cars. I'm powering up here we go... why are you shifting gears at 4 thousand rpm. You were in sixth gear when you should have been in third. What a shame but must have been fun. My grandma's corolla does over a 100mph, you did it in a LFA
the event was designed to give drivers a feel for the car- not let them go balistic- it was a very small circuit and there was a pace car infront of me too.
