Limerock is a great place to shoot. You can walk around the entire track and be close enough to shoot from anywhere. Not to mention you dont need a media pass to get into the paddock. They have repaved the track and added new segments and corners, which will make shooting even better, since the old track had only one left turn. Supposedly there are going to be 2 new spectator areas as well. Which days are you going to be there?

It's been several years since I shot at Limerock but I loved the "esses" going up hill just after the straightaway. You can easily shoot that from the spectator hill. Another good spot was near or on the over pass looking back at the straightaway.

Just look for the other photographers (the one's with the passes). You can usually get close to where they are, just on the other side of the fence. Taken some great shots there.
