    All,
    As promised this event is going to take place again this year on July 21st.

    We plan on having a specific FerrariChat parking section at the event to make it easier to find people (this was lost in translation last year) and will be getting a discount on ticket pricing as well.

    There is a slight change in the process for someone to purchase a corral ticket this year. Instead of buying a single ticket that includes both corral and admission, one just needs to buy their admission ticket, and buy the corral ticket as a separate add-on.

    Admission tickets are $33 until July 13th, at which point they go up to the gate price of $50. Corral tickets are $15 for non-FerrariChat members. FERRARI2012 is the discount code for this year- it will give anyone who uses it on a corral ticket $5 off. CORRAL TICKETS MUST BE PURCHASED BEFORE THE DAY OF THE EVENT, THEY WILL NOT BE AVAILABLE DAY-OF.

    Tickets are available at http://tickets.limerock.com

    We also have a FB page setup where we will be posting news of the event. Help us make it popular and check out some pics from last years event

    LRP also has a great HD highlight video which can be found here

    Will post details as they become available

    I bought a corral ticket. Do I need to buy a general admission ticket for my wife or just another corral if we are in the same car? The site was kind of light on details. Also what time must one arrive to be one of the 1st 50 cars that get to do a parade lap? Thanks in advance.

    Answer: 1 admission per person, 1 corral per car. Hope that clears up any confusion

    Gents (and Ladies),
    We are putting together a raffle which will include a Skip Barber 1 Day High Performance Driving school at Limerock. For those unfamiliar see description below. I've personally done this and its a great time. What better way to test drive a number of high end cars than at a venue like this all while improving your skillset.

    And another that will be at, shall we say a highly desirable garage in the NE region.


    HPD School:

    The time-proven Skip Barber Racing formula, experienced behind the wheel of a variety of high performance sports cars. You drive them hard in a multitude of settings: autocross, skid pad, threshold braking zones and of course, the race track.

    You’ll practice and come to understand at-the-limit vehicle dynamics as you practice slides and recoveries, "lane tosses" and accident avoidance techniques. And all the while you can contrast and compare the handling, power and ergonomics of different high-end sports cars. Cars include Porsche 911/Cayman, Lexus IS-F, Lotus Elise, BMW M3

    Value: $1800 USD

    Keep posted for more details, should have them up by Monday.

    Hi all,
    Just wanted to let everyone know theres 2 days left to get the discounted ticket rate. Its getting close, hopefully everyone is excited. We had a great turnout last year.

    I will be posting up a word doc this weekend that contains a name plate.

    Lime Rock has asked us to fill in our FChat name, print and place it on the windshield/dash for the event. Hopefully this will result in less confusion and allow members to identify each other easily.

    Any last minute questions let me know

    Bob - the parade lap is going to be limited to 50 cars from FChat. Right now we are at 24 tickets sold, so everyone has a spot right now. If we exceed 50, it will be first come, first serve as to who gets to the track entrance in time.

    But as of now, everyone will get some track time.

    All,
    LRP has asked us to print out the attached document and place it on the dash/windshield to help with organising the corral.

    Please fill out the license plate with your FChat name and bring with you. It will help the event staff and reduce confusion.

    Guys,
    Thanks to all who came out yesterday. We had a great showing, and hopefully there was less confusion than last year. I think the staff did a great job, but certainly let me know anything we can improve for next year.

    I'll put some of my pictures up throughout the week.

    Did anyone see that small green-ish Ferrari ? Kind of reminded me of a Lotus..=D
