  • Yes, this is the fastest 'STOCK DRIVETRAIN' Lexus IS200 to ever lap the Nordschleife but the title only tells you half the story! A very interesting and unusual story. Want to know why someone that owned a Lotus Elise S1 and an Integra Type-R decides to 'downgrade' to a theoretically slower IS200? What is the unique approach Andrea has when it comes to risk management and driving the Nordschleife? Educate yourself on a RWD platform that makes a great Ringtool and isn't a BMW or a Miata.

    I love this channel and among the great videos on it, this is my favourite. Of course, the lap is great to watch, but I also loved hearing Andrea's philosophy about the car (it is disposable, it is fast enough with these mods) and about trying to achieve a great lap... I also have the feeling that sometimes, it feels like "work" when you are trying to beat your personal best time on a track you know well, but when I look back on the days when I was struggling to be fast, I still remember those days as great fun, and as a move forward towards my goal of that "dream lap". Well done OLH.

Would Gatti still recommend the same spring rate front and back if the car is still at full weight?
