OK, lets get some more basic information:  did you insert the Limiter
plugin in the pre or post-fader box of Track 1?  Which plugin is it
specifically?

Did you un-bypass the plugin and do you hear it working under normal
playback conditions?  Looks like you do after re-reading your original
message.

Your routing sounds correct, you should be getting the effected output
when recording like that.  Make sure that the only connected inputs on
track2 are track1's outs.  Try some sanity checks like putting the
gain fader way down on track1 and do the record.
