Ground breaking for track upgrade at Lime Rock on ThursdayMotor racing legends John Fitch and Sam Posey join Skip Barber, president of Lime Rock Park, on Thursday morning for a ground-breaking ceremony to improve conditions at the celebrated track, according to news statement from Lime Rock. Improvements include track upgrades and repaving, “creating what will be ‘two Lime Rock Parks,’ the statement said. John Fitch was the first track manager at Lime Rock Park a sports car racing champion; Sam Posey, was a Lime Rock Park racing legend and track architect. Last July, Barber announced the creation of The Club at Lime Rock Park in an effort to raise money for track and facility improvements in order to ensure its future. Membership in the club includes 60 guaranteed track dates a year for 50 years. It costs $100,000 and can be passed down in the family or resold through the club. At the time, Barber said the club was designed to achieve two goal. The first was to raise money to invest in the track, particularly in resurfacing the track as well as upgrading such facilities as the press area and the entrance as well as planting trees in the unusually bucolic setting. The second goal is to create a 50-year obligation for the track to accommodate the members of its club with time on the track.
