LIC Motorsports "The Underdogs" Episode 2

Episode 2 of The Underdogs reveals a whole new side of brothers Adam and Noah Levy. Watch as they prepare their race-bred Subaru for the next Redline Time Attack event at Willow Springs Raceway in Rosamond, California. Episode 2 takes a closer look at the brothers' humble beginnings, and the creation of LIC Motorsports. But is their experience enough to translate into a win as they struggle for perfection on Willow Springs' fast and unforgiving track?

Thanks... love vids like this. Great vid.

Just out of curiosity... besides gobs of hope and determination, what info projections make it a reasonable goal to beat the GTR?

(rooting for LIC of course)

thats an easy answer...we arent that far off from them (last track yes we were but we've run over 1.5 secs faster there last year on similar tires) and 5+ secs faster on slicks but keeping things equal we have been closer to that time they laid down on that weekend. We only carry 4mph less in the straights @ WSIR. we hit 158mph, they hit i believe 162mph. At Fontana we were a few secs back and being thats a HP track we expect that.

Our car has handling issues (being hopefully resolved as we speak). The suspension setup and chassis holds secs if not more, the driver never driven these tracks probably holds some time as well. We are close to them, sometimes more than others...we all fight the same stuff, just in different tiers. If we could afford a suspension engineer track side and the level of support some others have, we would get there that much quicker but the fact of the matter is its just us two guys and it takes longer with less experience and less hands. For those that don't know when you get your car pushing at these levels, you adjust one thing to correct this or that and it effects another thing. Its a constant struggle to keep a homogeneous state, its very challenging in fact. The one major positive thing we have going is our motor package is really being put to the test, not a single failure or any major issues thus far (still on same motor and we've done 4 races, 3 dyno days, and 1 test day).

I'm confident we can do it....just a matter of when? Maybe I'm wrong, and that's ok too.

*and we are not just after the GTR, we are after pushing the development of this car.

I love that my car made it into the video with the picture of the LIC parking lot full of blue cars. haha.

The quality of the 1080P clip is great. Was watching it on the 50" plasma in the next cubicle.
