With the recent spate of spy shots (http://www.autoblog.com/2008/04/16/spy-shots-lexus-readying-race-prepped-lf-a/) and the announcement that Lexus would be would be campaigning the LF-A at the 24 Hours of Nurburgring race (http://www.autoblog.com/2008/04/21/official-toyota-to-campaign-lexus-lf-a-in-24-hours-of-nurburgri/), it was just a matter of time before we were afforded the opportunity to see the Lexus supercar in action. The short video after the jump gives us a couple fly-bys of the LF-A blowing down a straight expanse of tarmac and ends with the camo'd mule pulling into the pits with a few squeaks from the race-ready brakes. The sound of the 500-hp, 5.0-liter V10 shouldn't be missed, so hit the jump for the video.
