1957 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The Lime Rock Historic Festival 2014 will be held August 29th to September 1st at the 7-turn, 1.5 mile Lime Rock Park road course in Connecticut.<\/p>\n

Ralph Lauren will serve as Honored Collector, following previous honorees Miles Collier, Laurence Auriana and Peter Sachs. In addition, Sir Stirling Moss and wife Lady Susie will be featured guests at Lime Rock Park\u2019s 32nd annual Labor Day weekend event.<\/p>\n

Festival Chairman Murray Smith confirmed that Lauren would show a small group of cars from his collection which will reflect his automotive taste and provide a rare opportunity for enthusiasts to appreciate some special cars that are rarely, if ever, seen in public.<\/p>\n

\u201cRalph\u2019s cars are simply fabulous and we are pleased to announce his desire to show some of them, uniquely, at Lime Rock Park,\u201d Smith said.<\/p>\n

Regarding Moss, Smith said, \u201cIt is no exaggeration to say that Sir Stirling and Susie immensely enjoyed their visit to Lime Rock Park two years ago and, well, he asked me if we would like them to come again. Of course, I couldn\u2019t say \u2018yes\u2019 fast enough.\u201d<\/p>\n

Sir Stirling will drive demonstration laps Friday, Saturday and Monday in cars of particular import to his racing career, including the strong likelihood of the appearance of his 1954 Sebring 12 Hour-winning OSCA MT-4b, entered by Briggs Cunningham. Autograph sessions will also be scheduled.<\/p>\n

While Maserati is celebrating its 100th anniversary at various venues in 2014, Lime Rock will instead devote attention to the cars of the Maserati Brothers after they left their eponymous firm — OSCA. Little jewels which, driven by notables such as Giulio Cabianca, achieved extraordinary results.<\/p>\n

The 2014 Lime Rock Festival will also honor the notable engineer Carlo Abarth together with a large group of the cars he designed and campaigned at Cisitalia and Abarth. Reaction from enthusiastic owners of these delightful cars has been tremendous and Chairman Smith expects a record-breaking group of these cars racing and on show at \u201cSunday in the Park,\u201d the Concours d’Elegance integral to each year\u2019s Historic Festival.<\/p>\n
