Looking to get a group together for a drive up to watch the racing excitement at Lime Rock Park on Saturday July 18th. The American Le Mans Grand Prix will be in its second day.

The American Le Mans Series boasts the best, world-renowned drivers piloting the meanest, greenest race cars in the world. Dedication to sophisticated technology and green racing defines this series as one of the best in the business. With an electrifying field of Ferraris, Vettes, BMWs and Acuras worth bragging about, the ALMS weekend is not one to be missed. And neither is the amazing opportunity for fans to stand on the starting grid just minutes before the green flag waves. Supporting the ALMS superstars will be Formula Atlantic and Formula BMW providing some intense open-wheel racing.

Intention is to have a meeting spot along Route 8 North on Saturday morning and then go in as a group to the event. We will take advantage of the Specialty Parking Area at the event which is essentially a fantastic car show a few steps from the racing action. Details for Specialty Parking:

The ever growing and popular Specialty Car Lot is back for the American Le Mans Northeast Grand Prix, 17-18 July 2009. That’s right – all of our fans who arrive in interesting and special cars get their very own parking spot. Because this parking lot has been so successful, we are now splitting it into two groups: pre-1970 cars (anything and everything!) and post-1970 specialty cars (to include foreign and domestic, interesting and special).

“Special cars doesn’t necessarily mean expensive,” says Skip Barber, President of Lime Rock Park. “Of course we want the Ferrari’s, but a nice convertible Cadillac El Dorado is also welcome.”

Like all parking at Lime Rock, it’s free! Don’t worry about door-nicks and you’re not far from the Spectator hillside. The Specialty Car Lot is conveniently located in the Infield.

When you arrive in style and come over the Infield Bridge, if you’re driving something we think other fans will want to see, one of Lime Rock’s trained parking specialists will give you the option of the Specialty Car Lot.

The Specialty Car Lot becomes a show in and of itself. But don’t get lost in the assembly of cool cars, after all there’s a race to see remember!?

NOW THE IMPORTANT PART: If we can get a sizable turnout for this I will ask my contacts at LRP if we can take advantage of the Car Corral program for the Rolex Vintage Weekend in September. If you are not familiar with the Car Corral setup here goes:

Corrals include premium parking in the Infield as well as parade laps on Saturday for the first 50 cars from each marque to arrive.
