This is a fairly casual time trial. The Lexus LC500 '17 is not the fastest car on the roster, but it delivers a smooth, enjoyable driving experience. The pairing is especially interesting since this car rarely appears in time trials. Track limits are also a major factor here, as it is easy to invalidate a lap if you push too far, so precision is key.
