    LIME ROCK MOUNTAIN



    The "Mountain Course" at Lime Rock Park (Lakeville, Connecticut) is a legendary, never-completed track extension originally planned in 1957. While bulldozed and mapped, it was deemed too expensive to pave for racing. Today, it survives as a virtual track in racing simulators and an active cycling route.
    The Mountain Course: By the Numbers
    • Length: \(\sim 2.93\) miles (compared to the standard \(\sim 1.5\)-mile circuit)
    • Turns: 11 turns
    • Elevation Change: 200 feet
    • Frontstretch: \(\sim3,000\) feet
    Real-World Use Cases
    Because the mountainous terrain and heavy tree coverage make it financially prohibitive to pave for automotive sports car racing, the track's footprint is utilized for off-road cycling and mountain biking.
