I was working in this neighborhood a while ago, and it took two me two street signs to see a connection, so I looked in my Thomas Brothers Guide map of the area.. and look at all the cool car and racing related names of the streets! Somebody in planning street names has a thing for racing.
I don't know how some are related, but here are some obvious ones:
Lime Rock, Concours, Pierce and Arrow courts, Offy, Muncie, Bearcat, Packard, Runabout, Autocross, Foyt, Jag, Cord, Fiat, Oldfield, Darlington, Donahue, Muira, Seca, Targa

Ever notice signs of car guys that have paved the way ahead of you? In this case, literally. Almost all the road names are car related
