I dont mean to hijack the thread but I'm attending a DE at Lime Rock in September; what hotels, B&Bs do people recommend close to the track?

Default not much choice

As far as hotel go the choices are slim and none. I'm local enough to drive in on my track tires, so i have no first pillow experience. The Interlaken Inn ain't cheap, but it is the only nice place within 10 miles.

I am staying there. Not a bad deal for a large room but single rooms aren't cheap.

Looks like we will be having dinner Wednesday night at the Boat House. I have reservations for 8. So far it looks like.

1? Alan G

That leaves 1-2 open spots if anyone else is interested.

Reservations I believe are for 7PM let me know if this works for you guys.

Interlaken, Iron Masters, White Hart, Wake Robin are all good and are within 3 miles of each other and 5 miles from the track.

Interlaken and Iron masters are more typical full service hotel/motel. White Hart is an Inn in a large old home (full restaurant downstairs) and Wake Robin is probably the nicest of them all.

Expect to pay since there's not much available and it's a pretty high rent district.

I will be there along with Mrs. Z-man, who will be using the tow vehicle to find some nice shopping opportunities whilst I'm turning laps. (I'm not worries - it would be nearly impossible for her to outspend me, given the dollars that go into this driving madness!!)

I'll find out if Kim's interested in dinner at the Boathouse.

Look me up at the track! Red 944S2 #142

More the merrier. I am sure we can work it out. I will call later to increase the reservations and if we have less so be it.

Just great, I am running tech so it should be fun first thing in the AM.

Cindy is making Turkey chilly. Do we need anything else for lunch? We also increased the reservations to 10 people in case we have extras. That is Wednesday night 7 pm at the Boat House.
