no kidding, looks like pin it to win it with minimal sliding. I wouldve loved to see the L go a few laps right with it.

LIC Motorsports was back on the Time Attack scene at this past weekend’s Infineon Raceway/Global Time Attack (GTA) event Finals for 2011. The event was held over the course of 2 days (Friday and Saturday) and it saw an array of interesting weather throughout. Before LIC even made it to the event, they had the cards stacked against them…here is a brief rundown of the chaos and outcome.

In wanting to not rush things and do due diligence the LIC Motorsports race car was fitted with a few new items to get it prepped for an all out war at the upcoming finals. The decision was made to run a new motor case, pistons, bearings, upgraded GTX turbo, equal length headers, custom up-pipe, and higher capacity oil pan (still using last year’s crank/rod assembly). Upon early completion of these items the car was to be recalibrated by Tim Bailey of COBB Tuning Surgeline. The car got its final tune approx 2 weeks before the scheduled GTA event at Infineon Raceway. With about 1.5 weeks remaining until the event, LIC decided to test the motor and ensure all was well as the motor was making fantastic power prior to heading to the event in a few days. The outcome of those results started a whirlwind for the crew. It was discovered that as a result of running this new found power levels, it was too much for the stock case and that the motor would need to come out and be redone. So Adam and Noah made a quick decision, 1- to continue and fight the odds and attempt to make the event, or 2- to call it quits. The decision wasn’t a cut and dry easy one, as SEMA was on the horizon and would tie up 3 days that were very much needed during this time. The crew made the decision...CLICK HERE to read more

Great shots JZ! We're going to have to start a thread for all the GTA Infineon photos, especially since we had so many local photographers out there.
