Subaru fans the world over can relax, Launch Control is back. And this time, it’s the early Christmas present that just keeps on giving.
The first episode drops on Wednesday (November 20) and becomes a weekly staple all the way through the holiday season and into Monte Carlo Rally week in January. All 10 shows are packed with content from another stellar Subaru season.
The twists and turns on the way to Brandon Semenuk’s third straight ARA title are well documented, as is Travis Pastrana’s return to rallying after a year out through 2023. There are hillclimbs and record attempts with the Family Huckster GL and Project Midnight’s awesome debut at Goodwood Festival of Speed.
Woven into the story of a season of success is the infrastructure which provides for those accomplishments – enjoy a deep dive into Subaru Motorsports USA and technical partner Vermont SportsCar. Ace commentator Andrew Coley is your guide.
Motorsports marketing manager James Tate is excited for what’s coming our way.
The latest season of Launch Control builds on what's gone before but will introduce new elements
He told DirtFish: “’Rebooting’ Launch Control is a balancing act; we have a duty to our longtime viewers to deliver the rally action and the detail they’re expecting, but at the same time there’s the responsibility of upping the excitement and bringing new fans into this decades-long story. We put a lot of effort into bridging that gap and we’re excited about the result.
“This season, viewers will see more of the whole picture – the rally effort but also a look at our special projects as they take on hillclimbs, time attacks, and record attempts. They’ll get an in-depth look at the lives of Subaru Motorsports USA’s star drivers – what makes them tick when they’re not behind the wheel and the challenges they face in each new season. It’s good stuff.”
Launch Control is available from Subaru’s YouTube account.
