The Lime Rock Drivers Club is not special just because we say so.

Lime Rock Park is a race track.

Lime Rock Park shaped motorsports history.

Lime Rock Park is one of the most beautiful tracks in the world.

The Lime Rock Drivers Club is special because it's the best way to experience Lime Rock Park.

In the strictest of terms, the Lime Rock Drivers Club is a club for drivers.

Lots of track time, fully coached, at a fantastic, world-famous circuit.

And it's convenient to New York City and Boston.

But more than that, The Club is an extended social gathering, a limited membership of motorsport enthusiasts. Like-minded people who have a sophisticated appreciation of the depth and richness of Lime Rock's history.

Today's high-end sports cars are so good, so capable, there is simply no way to explore their limits on the street. As an owner of such a car, how can you resist the chance to drive it as it's meant to be driven? On one of the finest, best-known tracks in the world?

The Lime Rock Drivers Club is where members get their cars down to the same apexes as have three Andrettis, two Villeneuves, two Sharps, Newman, Penske, a couple of Rahals, a pair of Gurneys, Posey, Ward, Donohue, Hobbs…

In its Classic configuration, Lime Rock is the fastest road course in North America. In its new Optional configuration, completed in the spring of 2008, Lime Rock is a moderate speed track with new first- and second-gear corners, heavy braking and multiple shifts per lap. Having held major professional events continuously for more than 50 years, today Lime Rock Park is where the best and fastest drivers — Allan McNish, Tom Kristensen, Olivier Panis, Butch Leitzinger, Jan Magnussen, Max Papis, Mika Salo and David Brabham among them — annually do battle in the fascinating American Le Mans Series (ALMS) prototype championship. All the leading professional sanctioning bodies (Grand-Am, NASCAR, SCCA Pro Racing, IMSA) bring their series to Lime Rock.

The essence of Lime Rock Park is this: You know The Club is special because you feel it when you walk — and drive — its revered ground.

And as a Member, it's yours...
