Saturday July 23 - Our Last Track to Track Day

Today we start the last day of our big adventure.  We will meet up at The Thermal Club.  A private racetrack for Southern Californians with way too much money.

This is from an old LA Times article:

"The rich can choose from a handful of members-only tracks nationwide — the most prominent being Monticello Motor Club outside New York City — but none has combined the concept with real estate, on the model of the most exclusive golf clubs.

Like any utopian fantasy, the price of admission to this club is steep.

Plots sell for $460,000 to $800,000. Budget at least another $1 million for a villa chosen from one of five templates, or design and build your own. Then add the one-time membership fee of $85,000 and $19,200 in annual dues."

Holy cow!!!

As we get ready to head to our last rise and shine, this is our morning view from the hotel. It is 7:00 am and already 88 degrees. I hope our morning breakfast is inside!! Yesterday we were not that lucky. 

At the track.
