I dont know why they are pent up about the soarers, as far as I know, the soarer never came with an 8, while the lexus did, while the cars might have been the same body, they are technically different cars. And add to that the vl v8 didnt come out until some time after the six cylinder model, which would mean, technically by what has been said here, that the vl/t before the v8 option came out could race. I couldn't care less what sort of car it is, as long as it has a jap six, four, or rotary in it let it run, its not as though its going to damage andra's reputation by doing so.
