Under the Lime Rock Bridge
My friend Fred was there with his 77 and for years he has club raced at Lime Rock. He said: when you race over the top of the hill just before the bridge; as you crest the hill the bridge is just ahead as the track lowers downhill and he says it looks like the bridge is too low and will chop your head off.
I hope this 2 second shot works. It shows the C6R going under the infield cross over bridge with the www,limerock,com logo.
Woohoo.

Lime Rock Corvette Serendepity ERRATA again
Lime Rock, Corvette, Serendepity again+ ERRATA CORRECTED
(Errata corrected: I screwed up and miss-identified the Crew Chief’s Car# and I apologize. It’s updated here and on all my links. No need to read further.)
Like Yogi Berra, I believe it’s DejaVu all over again.
I’m a believer in serendepity. In 1970 my Jag-u-are was stolen and I bought my Aunts Sil’s 1963 Corvette. Serendepity. After Sebring March 2007 I run into the #3 C6R team at Outback, and briefly meet the #3 crew chief. Serendepity.
Thursday evening a Lime Rock I recognize that #3 crew chief, Dan Binks and he smiles and says “Hi, how are you?” I reply “Fine and you”? He acknowledges, and I said “You remember me?” And he says “Sure”, and then invites me and Deb into their tent garages. He knows I’m a rabid fan. And by now I’m shooting jpegs as fast as my Sony will allow. I mentions the photos and offer him copies. He says he will get me an address and I happily wander about the Corvette “restricted” race garage grinning like a Chesire cat. I’m on hallowed ground.
A few minutes later a woman in Corvette Team apparel asks me about the photos and I’m gushing that anyone is interested. She introduced herself but I was so intoxicated just being in “theeee C6R Corvette” tent that I did not really comprehend what she was saying. She excuses herself and returns with the business card shown below, grabs the pen in my shirt pocket and writes her name on the card and says – send it to my attention. Then it dawns on me Serendepity has again struck me right between the eyes. We had way too much fun. We chatted again on Friday and I was again so excited my wife had to do all the talking. All I could do was grin and giggle.
I got great stills and video and just looked at it once since we got back. Sunday we went to the annual CtCvetClub meet at Moroso event. I’m pooped. Very sunburned.
