Default 2017 IMSA WeatherTech at Lime Rock Park

Missed this last year, but looking to go this year.

Is there a corral like Watkins Glen? If not, how do you get to do parade laps?

LRP Corvette Corral was much smaller last year. Not sponsored by Corvette Racing as in prior years. There is no view of the track from the Corral at LRP.

I couldn't find a picture of the open side of the Corvette Corral tent ? but do have this picture of it.

Agreed. With all the $$$$ they made last year they should have spent few bucks for their most loyal customers.

Unfortunately this year at lime rock it does not look like official corvette racing hospitality like the type that occurs at watkins glen this year either. It is really too bad about last year since they had their 100th victory at lime rock. What's more of a shame is we had to go to the porsche tent to get our parade lap instructions and passes. On top of that, the Porsche group treated us great as the stepchildren of the bunch, feeling sorry for us....ouch. Shame on corvette racing. That said, thanks to the corvette club of ct for scrambling to get a tent, lunch and help us corvette owners who were let down by corvette racing. Without them we would have had nothing.

There will be a Corvette Corral this year on Friday and Saturday.

Price is $20 per day for infield parking in the designated Corvette Corral area set up by Lime Rock Park. No hospitality tent or anything else (as of today) is planned because no one is sponsoring any amenities. I think there will be a parade lap for first 25 Corvettes.

Well, at least we can park in the infield as a group! Maybe someone can contact the Corvette Team and ask them to stop by and say hello! Or maybe join us for the parade lap.
