Hi Allen, I did make it to Lime Rock and I had a great time. I had never been there before or to any track before. I love the lay out at Lime Rock where you can walk around on the grassy hills and watch the racing or tour the Paddock. I look forward to my next opportunity to visit again.
I did not get there until about 2:45 PM because I had to go to a Parkinson's Disease fund raising event in Central Park NYC with my wife. She is a Speech Pathologist who specializes in working with people who have had head injuries including Iraq war vets, Stroke victims, and people with Parkinsons. We didn't get out of there until about noon and then got a little lost trying to find Lime Rock. My Google Map directions were really bad. They were actully wrong in places where they told me to make a right where it was impossible to do so and then a left where I actually needed to go right. But I have to say that it is a pleasure to get lost in the area within a 20 mile radius of Lime Rock. I want to go back up there just to drive around. Especially on that River Road that winds along the River on my way home. Thanks for getting me to go in the first place.
Steve

Steve, that is what this Forum is all about, getting together and sharing. I know we will meet at some point and again I am excited about attending one of the summer Bear Mtn. Wed night events. We will all stay posted and I am glad you had a good time. Good thing your GPS didn't tell you to turn right into the river....

I would love to go to that summer Bear Mtn event. Is there a calendar where these events are listed? I know I can find the PCA Club racing and DE events on the PCA site. Man I'd love to try that club racing but unfortunately I most likely never will for two reasons.
1. Budget. Too expensive a hobby.
2. Wife. Says she will divorce me if I do it. She thinks I will get hurt and end up as a head injury patient.
I told her I bet the incidents of serious injury in club racing is probably statistically smaller than my chances of getting seriously hurt on the public roads and highways.

As soon as we find out the schedule we will post it on this forum. We can then announce what nights we would be going so as to be able to meet up with other forum members.
Allen
