Letter From the CEO

 

Welcome to the Trans Am Memorial Day Classic at Lime Rock Park

Since 1957, Lime Rock Park has been hosting some of the greatest racing series, automotive technology and competitors in the world.  Once again, racers from around from around the globe have gathered to challenge this historic, 1.53-mile, 7-turn road course.

This weekend, the Trans Am Series presented by Pirelli honors its Lime Rock Park racing legacy that dates back to May 29, 1967, when Peter Revson, Mark Donohue and Jerry Titus filled the Trans Am podium.

SVRA brings a variety of vintage road racing icons. Brabham, MG, Alfa Romeo, Lotus, Lola, Mustang and Corvette are just a few of the legendary nameplates you will see in the paddock and on the track this weekend. Porsche and Ferrari racers will battle for bragging rights during the International GT races. On Saturday and Monday, there will be a Fan Walk before the start of the feature races.

Sunday’s Royal’s Car Show will showcase some of the best Classic and Exotic vehicles on the East Coast. Take some time to check out the diverse show entries, enjoy a picnic lunch and meet some of the car owners.

We have returned to FREE streaming for 2022.  Fans, racers and crews will be able to watch races live on YouTube.com/SpeedTourTV. The lineup for Saturday and Monday includes feature races from Trans Am and SVRA. In addition, live coverage and highlights can be found on the series’ respective social media pages and YouTube channels.

Whether you’re watching the races,  admiring a show car or just spending time with the family, your visit to the Trans Am Memorial Day Classic is sure to be memorable.

Our team is honored to have the opportunity to present this world-class event. I’m thrilled to welcome drivers, fans and enthusiasts to the Trans Am Memorial Day Classic at Lime Rock Park!

Ladies and gentlemen, start your engines. Let’s go racing!
