  • 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.

    The original video of this IS200 putting in a super aggressive lap of the ring was how I found OLH, it's great to learn more about the car and driver as I am also building an IS, seeing him hit 1.5+ Gs in the corners is inspiring! Would Gatti still recommend the same spring rate front and back if the car is still at full weight? I am guessing the balance is changed a lot with stripping the interior and going to a fibreglass bonnet
