Reply to comment by tidymaze in Why does CT only have oval tracks or kart tracks, I feel like it would be good to have a grand prix style track for racing by toasty_boi12345678

Unfortunately it is a kart track and not for actual cars

Ooohhh.... I didn't know what you meant. I thought you meant for karting.

Well, you've obviouly never heard of Lime Rock Park. IMSA races there.

I am looking at Lime Rock Park right now actually, issue is it's pretty far from me and seems really expensive, like, average Connecticut citizen rich

You're complaining about racing being expensive?

For the averages CT resident it wouldn't be an issue to rent the track, but I want to be able to drive a street car there, and I am not really able to shed a few hundred dollars on the spot

Most tracks don't just let you drive a road car on them. Track days are a thing, even if they're expensive.

It can be depending on what you want to do. A lot of the car clubs race there. It's not like the Nurburgring where you pay a tenner and get a few gos around, this is true. And nothing in CT is more than a couple hours away. It's worth the ride. It's a gorgeous track and super fun to drive around. It's worth the cash.
