Driver and NBC Sports insider Parker Kligerman spoke about one of the most beloved additions to the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series Schedule: the 1.5-mile road course Lime Rock Park in Lakeville, Connecticut. For Kligerman, a part owner of the track, this addition means the world.
Jared Haas of Frontstretch reminded everyone that Lime Rock Park has some interesting history.
