Every race track in America should copy Lime Rock Park's circuit-within-a-circuit.
Lime Rock’s infield track is a miniature road course that sits tucked on top of one of the many rolling hills that make up Lime Rock’s overall property. Plopped away from the bustling collection of roads, parking areas, and track maintenance buildings scattered within the greater infield, you have to travel up the service road from the main paddock then hang a left towards the bathroom facilities to get there.
“They were built specifically to educate drivers as to the proper line through a corner. There are only three types of corners. An increasing radius, a decreasing radius, and a compromise corner.Between ‘91 and ‘93 a second, northern oval mirroring the original design was added, alongside a pair of tarmac strips connecting the two courses. This allowed instructors to tailor the track’s layout to best suit their teaching.
“All of a sudden there became this audience for people that couldn't afford to do the road course,” Irvine told us. “We realized it was really important to not only let people do it, but to have some instructors there to coach as little or as much as each of the drivers wanted.” To this day Lime Rock continues to offer a winter autocross program, though the window to run it has been shrinking every year.
