Re: First Skippy Race in May

They used to change up the track configurations at Lime Rock because we'd be there at least twice a season but we're only there once this year and most prefer Classic Lime Rock with the normal fast uphill. I'd expect that will be the configuration this summer. The alternate uphill is tougher on brakes and transmissions so both drivers and SBRS prefer the original configuration.

Lead follow will give you confidence and more of the nuance of those cars at Lime Rock. You can also reduce your cost by converting a lapping session to a lead follow. Because Lime Rock is short there are lots of laps per session.

Do they usually run the traditional layout of LRP for the race weekends or will they add in the newish chicane?

Looking forward to going wheel to wheel again.
