Abstract: For a normal subgroup $N$ of the free group $F_d$ with at least two generators we introduce the radial limit set $Lr(N,Phi)$ of $N$ with respect to a graph directed Markov system $Phi$ associated to $F_d$. These sets are shown to provide fractal models of radial limit sets of normal subgroups of Kleinian groups of Schottky type. Our main result states that if $Phi$ is symmetric and linear, then we have that $di{m}_H(Lr(N,Phi))=di{m}_{H}Lr(F_d,Phi))$ if and only if the quotient group $F_d/N$ is amenable, where $di{m}_H$ denotes the Hausdorff dimension. This extends a result of Brooks for normal subgroups of Kleinian groups to a large class of fractal sets. Moreover, we show that if $F_d/N$ is non-amenable then $di{m}_H(Lr(N,Phi))>di{m}_H(Lr(F_d,Phi))/2$, which extends results by Falk and Stratmann and by Roblin.
