Press release from Lime Rock Park:

Mark Your Calendar!
Lime Rock Park Kicks-Off the 50th Anniversary Season This Memorial Day Weekend.

It’s that time of year. Spring is here, cars are on the track and it’s time to gear up for the upcoming 2007 season. With 50th Anniversary celebrations aplenty throughout the entire season, every race weekend will be bigger and better than before.

Mark your calendar for this Memorial Day Weekend as we kick-off the golden anniversary with the Grand-Am GT Classic 25-28 May. The four-day holiday weekend of speed will bring some of the loudest and closest competition with the GT class battles between Porsches, Pontiacs, Corvettes, Ferraris, and Mustangs. The spirit of the original "Little Le Mans" race at Lime Rock Park in 1957 is carried on as a huge field of Koni Challenge Series cars keeps the tradition of production car racing alive.

The SCCA Speed World Challenge Touring Car Classic will once again be part of the Memorial Day Weekend racing. An all-out sprint from the standing start, right to the finish less than fifty minutes later. No pit stops, no driver changes, no blinking.

Come Sunday, instead of watching cars race, fans can take a walk through the Park and see some spectacular machinery as the famed Hemmings Magazine hosts the Sports & Exotic Car Show.
