Lime Rock Historic Festival 2015

Trip to the Lime Rock Historic Festival in Connecticut yesterday. Plenty of Loti and other interesting metal around in the paddock, in the "car corral's" and in the general parking area. The racing wasn't as frenetic as your average Grads meeting (not surprisingly), but it was good to see the machinery out on the track rather than seeing out it's days in a museum or collectors garage.

Thanks.

 

The two tone 7S4 is the first I've seen like that. There are few series 4 cars in the USA.

 

As to the wind deflector and door I would guess that it is the preferences of a husband and wife team

Dean - S4's are so few and far between I was surprised to see them over here. They are a rare enough site in the UK. It looked like there was also an S4 racing, but I saw it from afar and didn't have time to go over and check it out.

 

My friend in Scotland has a Caterham with one Tillett seat and one leather - but that is the first time I've seen a mix of door and deflector :-)

 

Busa - it is my regret that I spent too much time in the public carpark (where there were some fantastic motors), the corral's and the paddock to see much racing. I wanted to watch the class with the 7's in, but by 3.30pm my wife had had enough so we hit the road. I'd like to think that they would have been using their cars to full potential.

There are two S4s in the Denver area, an orange and a white one. The white one was for sale awhile ago so it may have left town since I last saw it.

There is a green with yellow stripe S4 near Wichita, Kansas. I believe it lives in a garage most of the time.
