MiataCon 2025 is in the books! 🚗🏁
HRD had a clean sweep of the weekend in Group 1 with HRD driver Matthew Carr (Miata # 90) dominating the field. Matt put on a “Carr Clinic” according to the announcer 😂 which we will never let him live down. In Group 2, LRP CEO and President Dicky Riegel (Miata # 34) took home first place for the first time ever in his Miata so it was a record breaking weekend for him as well. Our very own Pat Daly (Miata # 53) won the final race in Group 2. Great driving by some even greater gentlemen. Congratulations! 🎉

Thank you to for an amazing weekend, to for timing and scoring and to all of the LRP staff who made it a safe, fun event. We’ll see you all next year! 😎 Cue the photo dump 👌🏻

Congratulations to Jim Craige on his double win on Saturday, June 21 with the Lime Rock Drivers Club! 🏁

Though the field was smaller than usual, that didn’t take away from the action we saw on Saturday during our LRDC races 5 & 6 for the season championship. And yes, there was a Porsche Boxster out there too! LRDC member and new to Team HRD, Mike Gershon joined the Miata field in his Boxster to spice things up and add some flair. We don’t count his first place finish towards the podium standing but it was fun watching him lead the Miatas out of the gate and lap them TWICE! More powah baby! 💥

Race 1 was the IMSA1 course, which included the uphill chicane, and Drivers had to manage fitting through a very tight window which caused a few bumps and dings. This only fueled the competition more and we saw faster lap times with each passing lap. Jim Craige in “Spirit of ‘76” came out victorious once again!

Race 2 was on the classic course. Jim decided he wanted to start from the back of the pack and man was that a sight to see him claw his way back to P1 to take the victory checkered flag.

Congratulations to all of our esteemed drivers! It’s a privilege and a pleasure to see this much skill in action. We’ll see you at the next one! 😎

Race 1 Podium
