An increasing radius, a decreasing radius, and a compromise corner.Between ‘91 and ‘93 a second, northern oval mirroring the original design was added, alongside a pair of tarmac strips connecting the two courses. This allowed instructors to tailor the track’s layout to best suit their teaching.
“All of a sudden there became this audience for people that couldn't afford to do the road course,” Irvine told us. “We realized it was really important to not only let people do it, but to have some instructors there to coach as little or as much as each of the drivers wanted.” To this day Lime Rock continues to offer a winter autocross program, though the window to run it has been shrinking every year.
