Last week, Turn 10 Studios announced a new addition to "Forza Motorsport 6" tracks along with 41 more cars mostly from American automaker Ford.
"The new track joining the game is Connecticut's Lime Rock Park," IGN said.
"Opened in 1957, Lime Rock Park has been described as the spiritual home of motor racing in New England and has hosted a huge number of famous drivers and race types over its lifespan."
The 1.50-mile race track includes uphill and down dale "that looks deceivingly simple but is immensely challenging to drive quickly," according to the Lime Rock website.
The historic Lime Rock Park will be one of 26 "Forza Motorsport 6" tracks where players can drive in wet weather or at night in any of the 450 cars in the Forza Garage.

As for the cars, two iconic Ford cars lead the update. First up is the venerable 1981 Ford #2 Zakspeed Racing Capri Turbo which bested Ferrari at Le Mans in the 1960s.
"This icon of racing is not for the faint of heart, waiting to either bite your backside or blow your mind. Tread with caution, but enjoy every minute of the ride," Turn 10 said.
Next is the Trans-Am legend 1969 Ford Boss 302, once called "the best handling Ford to ever come out of Dearborn" by Car & Driver Magazine. Less than 2,000 examples of the V8-powered brute were built in 1969.
Other legendary cars from the automaker in "Forza 6" are the 1966 Ford GT40 Mk II, 1987 Ford Sierra Cosworth RS500, 1992 Ford Escort RS Cosworth and the 1965 Ford Mustang GT Coupe, among others.
Non-Ford additions to the Xbox One racing game include tuner favorites 1997 Nissan Skyline GT-R V-Spec, 2008 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X GSR, 1997 Mazda RX-7 and 1997 Honda Civic Type R.
European cars such as the 2004 Maserati MC12, 2008 Lamborghini Reventon and 2014 Alfa Romeo 4C made it to last week's update.
When it comes out on September 15, players can choose from a 450-strong car list and test their skills on any of the 26 "Forza Motorsport 6" tracks.
