Lexus TRD LFA D1, 1000+hp, sequential manual transmission
 
Currently it's at low power setting at 800hp, however TRD announced that they will be turbocharging it with well beyond 1,000hp.

Neat. Is it just me or do those fenders look similar to the Rocket Bunny FRS/BRZ/GT86?

white rocket 02-16-2015 12:52 PM

Oh look....over fenders!! Yay! /endsarcasm

westopher 02-16-2015 05:56 PM

I literally thought the exact same thing. It looks like the fender would smash tire tread anyways? I know its a race car and all, but doesn't do it for me.

Us in the future talking to our kids:

"Back in the day, when people modified cars, they put wheels on that actually fit under the stock fenders, without the need to put wider fenders on."

westopher 02-16-2015 06:30 PM

Except we won't, because people don't.
That would be our parents talking to us.

If I remember correctly they are using a nascar V8 engine. Half of me loves the fact that an LFA will be competing in D1, while the other half is disappointed they didn't use the original v10.

Timpo do you call yourself a man having a Justin Beiber avatar? Or are youactually a woman? I'm very confused.

lowside67 02-16-2015 08:23 PM

As if it's a racecar... it has street tires on it and there are only photos of it at car shows. And also, along the theme of this thread, fuck overplayed overfenders.

^Rolled and pulled fenders > overfenders on street cars.
