Lime Rock Park Historic Festival 31 -- 2013: race results, car show awards, etc.

Just got back from Lime Rock Park's Historic Festival 31, the 2013 edition of their annual historic races and car show.
Wrote an article each day, back in the hotel after activities for each day were finished (well, finished the last article on Tuesday, since I had to drive back to New York Labor Day night).
Here are the links:
Saturday: Historics: Lime Rock Park Festival 31 puts on 20 races, escapes rain
Sunday: Historics: Lime Rock Park Historic 31 showcases cars, history
Monday: Lime Rock Historic 31: Collier Ferrari takes 'Best of Show,' race results
Threatening rain held off but for a few minutes mid-day on Sunday and a longer, more virulent stretch Monday morning; however, Lime Rock still managed to put on 40 races throughout the weekend, involving 10 groups of cars (these, after practice and qualifying sessions as well). It also had its annual Concours d'Elegance with the finest collection of cars on display ever, according to LRP officials. There were certainly several rare vehicles in attendance.
Another fun event and good weekend. Appreciated the free beverages in the Media Center, and the well, park-like atmosphere is a pleasant way to experience a racetrack. No grandstands -- you bring a lawn chair, picnic, and watch races from the slope of a hillside! :)
As they say over there at the Northwest Connecticut Berkshires track, "Think fast!"
