Lime Rock Park, the oldest continuously operated road course in
America came about more by accident than design. Construction of
the course began in 1955 at a time when open road racing had been
banned in many states, and the use of military and civil airport
runways for racing was losing favor with the paying spectators.
Dubbed ‘The Road Racing Center of the East’ the park has a
turbulent history bedevilled by financial crises, discord with the
SCCA New England Region and expensive court cases involving the
Lime Rock Protective Association. Despite the struggle to keep the
circuit afloat, it prevailed against all odds. This book narrates
this history of mixed fortunes during the first twenty years of the
park’s existence when it was under the ownership of four
different people and contains material unseen before including over
900 images.
