Ran a blue lexus IS-F this mornin

[h22sparkle]

Wow man those cars are pretty quick. I just happened to see one and i got a little iffy to wonder what kind of lexus was it. It was just something about it id like to have one but i know its way out of my league.

So i was on the highway and after i got from behind him i decided to get along side of him and after i saw he didnt want to race i left and i guess my hks bov must have triggered him.

As soon as i got about half a mile down he gets on my ass and decided to try me. I downshifted and ran him he was 2 cars behind me and i slowly began to pull away from him while i wasnt in High octane mode.

Once i ran him again i couldnt believe how quick his car was so i was so excited i ran him again in high octane mode. Man i eased away from him honestly the way he dipped in and out of lanes at that kind of speed.

I let him go then we got back around to getting on the highway again and we ran one last time and i beat him by 3 cars. So he gets on the side of me and we chat with our cars rollin side by side.

He says wow man yo your shit is fast what you got in there i told him stage 3 with some bolt-ons he says well how much power is that im like 3 plus he was like yeah and i got 416 and its stock.

Im like damn shits quick and we went out seperate ways. I wonder if i should raise my boost because my boost tapers down as you go up in rpms kinda like a safety feature for longevity of the measure by the pcm. Well goodnight folks or should i say goodmornin.

Win, wow beating an IS-F is pretty sick those are some quick cars.

Your shit is fast. I'm not too surprised. Nice race though.

Out of curiosity does your car handle decently at all? Just not my style of car. Kills have to be satisfying though. What have you come across and lost to?

I havent lost to anything yet. since im stage 3 when i was stage 2 i lost to any evo, Then when i went stage 3 he had a gt30 r kit upgrade and i beat him. Then i ran him again and beat him.

He got the jump 2 and a half cars i reeled him back in him high octane mode then past him. The handling on these cars are great but just like almost every car if you want the most out of it you have to upgrade the suspension.

Right now im using pt cruiser antiswaybars front and back same as the acr model and stage 1 springs. Perfect for daily driving and handles really well. turns on a dime with no fling-outs its like its on rails.

I do have boost the lexus is-f doesnt have boost is allmotor 416hp and 376 tq itd s 5.0 v8

[WiKKeDV16]

that is why i pull the pcm out of the equation for the boost source.. silly safety features..

26psi solid on my buddys srt4


nice kill none the less

[blazenem]

nice kill... it's always good to see a high priced car bow down to a lower priced whip

[ilovemycb7]

Interesting. Well if you haven't lost to anything I would just leave it be. Seems like you're really enjoying it as it is. You wouldn't want to go blowing it up for no reason.

[SpdJnky93]

Damn he wqas up on you by about 100HP and you still got him, Power-to-weight ratio I guess, but nonetheless, nice kill!!!

[sackingz123]

good kill sparkle

[deevergote]

Those things are crazy. I saw one flying up behind me trying to race a Grand National. GN guy didn't want to race, so the IS-F went after a bike! The bike won. They sound pretty sick, thuogh. I wouldn't mind owning one down the line. It's Lexus's M3, and not a bad attempt at it, either.

And for those that don't know, sparkle is running an SRT-4. No longer an H22.
