A car that low is most likely on airbags. Not many people dump that much cash into a car these days and make it undriveable...
WRONG, I'm surrounded by morons in the same type thread over @ LFS.net, (not to mention IRL), with cars that are slammed & definitely not on airbags. (simply put, bags cost $$$ & most lowered cars aren't in the same price bracket as the showcars previously pictured) I'm sure some do have adjustable ride height of sorts, but guess what.. they rarely raise them & I've yet to see one get raised from the driver's seat/on the go. (or claim they've got the ability) Fact is, hordes of idiots slam their cars, rendering them undriveable and/or dangerous to follow because they mash the brakes every time there's a tiny elevation change or bump.
...Oh and; a Miata isn't uncommon on AutoX or trackdays, they're very good cars (even with their low power) for fun and competitive motorsports.
A Lexus SC400 on the other hand...not so, it doesn't take a genius to work out why.
As an owner of one, do you really think I'm stupid enough to not realize they're a majorly common autoX car? (been driving them since '97) The point was, dude's a c6 quadriplegic, (major spinal cord injury in the neck/can't even steer without one of
these), in what's essentially a 21yo, stock 1.6L, 4spd automatic on coilovers, and he's managing times that experienced vette drivers are. Once again, you totally missed the boat. If you're still clueless, point was autoX isn't solely for "track cars" or pro's and there's absolutely no reason an SC400 shouldn't give it a shot. If you really think it's pointless, you don't understand autoX.
...RX8 rotaries are trash, or so I've hard. I can care less about RX8s, as I dont want one...
1. Stop going by what you've heard, since you obviously know nothing about them.
2. While I can understand being stuck with an outdated username, (though not why you'd want to hide?), FIX YOUR SIG! If you don't have interest in RX-8's, remove the line that says you do, and anything else that no longer fits.
And once again, for all the retards hating on autoX'ing an SC400.. people take STATION WAGONS. It's grassroots racing around cones, not build a supercar. You take what you've got and do your best/have fun. Some people are blessed enough to take a Lotus or something, most aren't.
