Wet Laps at Lime Rock Park (Video)

Starting to be one of my new favorite tracks. Although the track is somewhat small, it's pretty technical and has good elevation changes. So many way to take turns 1/2 but for the most part I think most of either rimshot it did a minor double apex given the puddles around the curbing.

Challenger stretches its legs on the straight but I manage to catch up in the turns. Had it not been for the white e34 'chump' car and M3 I think I might've had a chance at the grey 335i. But more importantly, had a great time there and got more seat time for driving in the wet.

Ha not this time around, seeing how it was pretty much my first time there I'll be honest in that I was not comfortable yet. Will be back in 2 weeks and will switch it off then

So do you stay over or drive up and back the same day? I'm guessing from your reply that you do it all in one day.

Go up in morning and drive down same day. The drive up is really nice so don't mind it as much.

It's definitely an extra hour+ each way for me, so I would be inclined to go up the night before, otherwise I'd have to leave home at like 3AM. I'm going to try to get there next year.
