Housatonic Racing Development

Housatonic Racing Development (HRD) is a race‑car shop and service provider in North Canaan, Connecticut, offering car preparation, maintenance, and climate‑controlled storage. The team was founded by Jonathan “Jack” Scott and operates year‑round from a garage facility at 14 Grace Way.

HRD runs Spec Miata and race‑car rentals, provides transport and Arrive‑and‑Drive support at Lime Rock Park, and handles custom fabrication, alignments, and data/video installs. Their rental FAQ notes insurance and logistical requirements, and they supply crew, fuel and tires for track events.

Expect a working race garage focused on prepping and supporting competition cars.

Look out for:

• Race‑car rentals (Spec Miata and similar) with transport to Lime Rock Park.

• Full race support at the track including crew services, fuel and tire handling.

• Fabrication, alignment/corner balancing, and data/video installation services.

• Year‑round climate‑controlled storage for performance cars.

Best way to experience it:

Contact HRD in advance to discuss your goals (rental vs. service). For rentals you’ll need to confirm insurance and booking rules listed on their site; if attending Lime Rock, arrange the Arrive‑and‑Drive package so HRD can handle transport and track‑side logistics.

• Rentals and Arrive‑and‑Drive support require insurance naming HRD—confirm details with HRD before booking.

• Appointments or prior booking are recommended; the facility is a working garage, not a visitor center.

• HRD operates primarily in support of Lime Rock Park events—ask about transport and on‑track services.

• Contact via phone or email listed on their site for availability and specific requirements.
