KART THE PARK

POWERED BY HOUSATONIC RACING DEVELOPMENT

An Arrive-and-Drive Karting Program at Lime Rock Park in Lakeville, Connecticut

Housatonic Racing Development is partnered with Lime Rock Park as the exclusive provider to bring Spec Karting to LRP.  Spec Karting provides a fast, fun and fair environment that puts an emphasis on driver development which is exactly what HRD is all about.

Beginning in 2025, Lime Rock Park will host karting events featuring our HRD Spec Karts on the newly paved and improved FCP Euro Proving Grounds Course (or Autocross Course). There will be a number of track configurations available with an opportunity for multiple groups to drive the karts throughout each program.

Rental Karts will be available in two categories:

Adult - 14 years old and up (Min 58" tall)

Junior - 7 to 13 years old (Min 48" tall)

Karting helmets, protective neck rolls and head socks are mandatory and are included in each session.

Session Pricing: $45 per driver

Session Length: 8-10 minutes
