Grand-Am: Series to end 2012 season at Lime Rock Park

Grand-Am on Monday completed its 13-race, 2012 schedule by adding Lime Rock Park in Lakeville, Conn., as the final race of the season. The series last week released the majority of its 2012 calendar, which did not confirm a host for the final race.

"Lime Rock adds yet another layer of tradition to our 2012 schedules," Grand-Am president Tom Bledsoe said. "This will be the finishing touch to a full season of racing at history-rich venues."

The NJ race now moves to May, a much better month weather-wise. The heat in mid-summer has been oppressive the last few years.
