Lexus C F Carbon Kevlar breaks cover at Dead Sea
Toyo Tires brand ambassador Ahmad Daham revealed his latest Lexus RC F to the world at the lowest point on earth, The Dead Sea in Jordan. The car is Daham's second Lexus RC F drift weapon and this latest build benefits from a complete carbon kevlar body, helping to shave over 600Kgs from the weight of the factory spec car. The latest car is powered by the legengary 2JZ straight six engine, heavily tuned to make 1.200Hp.
Designed for international competition, the machine will be Ahmad’s weapon of choice for elite competition such as Drift Masters in Europe and the FIA International Cup in Japan as well as the UAE & Oman International Drift Championship.
The new, one of a kind Lexus Drift Car is the most powerful, most advanced Lexus drift car ever conceived. In preparation for the 2020 Drift Masters tournament, Ahmad Daham gave the newly designed full Carbon Kevlar Lexus RC F and his driving skills a thorough workout, pushing the car through the twists and turns, and stunning scenery of the Panorama Road culminating in a thrilling ‘togue’ (mountain drift run) to the very top of Mt Nebo, 2,600ft above sea level.
The Carbon Kevlar Lexus RC F puts its power on the road with Toyo Tires Proxes R888R track rubber, 255/35 R 18 at the front and 285/35 R19 at the rear.
