Anyone Interested In A Run To The American Le Mans Northeast Grand Prix?

**SKYMAN-CT** · 06-04-2007, 11:46 AM

Anyone interested here's the scoop on Lime Rock. This will be a little harder to coordinate than the Mohegan Sun run as tickets are involved - they do have group sales and if enough are interested I can check rates and group parking arrangements - the sooner we have a headcount the better. I'll call for info today or tomorrow and post details - for now here is the info from their website. http://www.limerock.com/content/events-le-mans

6-7 July 2007

The fastest fliers through Big Bend all season are unquestionably the world-class machines that compete in the American LeMans Series. The American Le Mans New England Grand Prix event is the first Stateside race for most of the teams returning from their triumph or defeat at the famed 24 Hours of LeMans.

The all-conquering Audi R8 retired as a winner at Lime Rock Park in 2006, but has been replaced by the eerily quiet but no less dominant TDI Diesel R10 in the leading LMP1 class. The lighter LMP2 class is quickly developing into a manufacturers battleground, with Acura jumping in to fight Mazda and Penske’s Porsches. Not all the action is with the prototypes, as the GT1 and GT2 classes are more than just moving chicanes for the prototypes, with factory Porsche hotshoes battling Corvettes and Aston Martins amongst the Ferrari F430’s and BMWs.

6 July - Practice and Qualifying
7 July - Race

TICKET PRICES
TIME TRIALS - FRIDAY 6 JULY, 2007 Price: $25.00
RACE DAY - SATURDAY 7 JULY, 2007 Price: $55.00
ENTIRE WEEKEND 6-7 JULY, 2007 Price: $70.00

Kait,

I haven't seen anyone else reply to this, I'm still thinking about going and will check to see if anymore tickets are available tonight.

Are you still interested? If so which day is better for you?
