Lexus Performance Driving School | Road Atlanta

This past weekend I attended the Lexus Performance Driving School at Road Atlanta, enjoy some videos I made from my visit. In my opinion order of more interesting to least. Enjoy! And let me know if you have any questions about it.

Did any of the Lexuses really feel suited to the racetrack? Lexus has always struck me as soft for such duty.

Honestly, the LC500 should have been a different car for a full track experience. I would have preferred the RC F on track than the LC500.

But while Lexus takes their performance cars seriously with the F there aren't that many of them.

RCF is definitely a better driving car. I also felt the RC was more fun to thrash around the track. The LC is pretty and sounds amazing, but it's definitely not suited for the track. More of a GT car.
