Small, fast and tight. Those are the three words that best describe Lime Rock Park, site of this weekend’s American Le Mans Northeast Grand Prix. At least Series drivers think so. Despite its size, the 1.54-mile, eight-turn circuit has plenty to offer the four classes of sports cars over the course of two hours and 45 minutes. What are some of the examples? Allow a collection of Series drivers to explain.

“Lime Rock is a tight, smaller track with a lot of bumps. You’re going with a totally different setup (than at Miller Motorsports Park). It’s so tight that you’ll go with a lot of aerodynamic aides and whatnot. It’s a very physical track; whereas Salt Lake City is more physical because of the heat, Lime Rock just pounds away at you, the machinery and the drivers. ”
