A Labor (Day weekend) of love at Lime Rock
So it was that the Labor Day at Lime Rock was a double (and some) feature this year: Mariano, our Suixtil USA distributor, was there with a superb and properly appointed stand. He also, these things cannot be helped, brought a race car (see the opening photo) along, because, you know. He had a great …
