Barber Series - Rounds 5 & 6 Preview

Lakeville, May. 24, 2011: In just two days, the racers of the BFGoodrich/Skip Barber National presented by Mazda head to Lime Rock Park in Lakeville, Connecticut for Rounds 5 and 6 of the sixteen race season. The series will be racing Memorial Day weekend in conjunction with GrandAm at the historic 1.53-mile, seven turn road course.
