Barber Proposes Club At Lime Rock
LAKEVILLE, Conn. - Skip Barber, president of Lime Rock Park, announced his plans for The Club at Lime Rock Park.
The Club at Lime Rock Park is an opportunity for a limited number of people, 300 maximum, to have significant track time - with 60 dates annually to choose - from while also enjoying the company of like-minded enthusiasts.
The membership cost at The Club at Lime Rock Park is $100,000, and the length of membership is 50 years. Membership can be passed down in the family or resold through The Club.
"My biggest fear is that, if the business and finances of Lime Rock Park are not sufficiently strong, the value of this beautiful piece of property could exceed its value as a race track and that when I am no longer around, a future owner will be tempted to convert it to a golf course…like what happened at Bridgehampton," declared Barber.
The Club at Lime Rock Park's first full season will be 2008. However, there are four dates reserved this fall for qualified Club applicants to sample the facilities.
