About this event
NORTHEAST GRAND PRIX: Friday, July 21 - Saturday, July 22, 2023
Top manufacturers like BMW, Chevrolet, Porsche and others are fielding factory teams alongside a bevy of privateer entries for a full field that will put on a non-stop action show over Lime Rock’s 1.5-mile circuit for this two-hour and forty-five minute sprint race. Two classes of GT3 cars pit pro and amateur drivers against each other for a shot at victory at the FCP Euro Northeast Grand Prix presented by LIQUI MOLY.
The IMSA Michelin Pilot Challenge features an all-production based field filled with the touring car (TCR) class. Engines are tuned to produce between 300 and 350 horsepower and can run speeds in excess of 140 mph.
Saturday’s race takes place over two hours of wheel-to-wheel action.
The VP Racing Sportscar Challenge is a sprint race battle featuring LMP3 prototypes and GT4 machinery (known as the GSX class), marking the return of LMP prototypes to Lime Rock Park.
