Fourth round of the American Le Mans Series, the '2011 American Le Mans Northeast Grand Prix' marks the start of the final sprint of the season. From now on the races will follow one another every two weeks until the Petit Le Mans on the 1st of October (ILMC round).
CIRCUIT
Built in the 1950's, Lime Rock Park (Connecticut) has the distinction of being without a grandstand, however this does not prevent spectators from enjoying excellent visibility from the hillsides lining the track where there is a picnic atmosphere (map here).
