Membership limited to 500 people?

WTF are they thinking?

Sounds very business and car oriented. $5 says they won't allow motorcycles.

We should start a country club!
Not in the ugliest desert you've ever seen ass-hat-part of America. In a place that you'd actually like to be.
Let's buy Laguna Secca! Old military compounds are going for cheap these days. They tend to have beachfront property!

neighbors don't complain about the noise in the desert... they DO at laguna seca...

There was a track like this south of Phoenix. After a few years of operation, they opened it up to the public. I believe Ascari in Spain is more or less similar as well.

Logo polo shirts @ $150 ea 

Autobahn in Joliet, ILL started like this as well...it lasted a year or two before they started allowing public orgs to rent the facility.

sounds like Monticello Motor Club.

There's a new track being built along these lines in Avondale, LA, just outside New Orleans. It's set to open in July and I've already signed on as a moto member 
That's the thing: these guys have included motorcyclists from the outset and have a relationship with the local Ducati shop to provide service at the track. They offer moto memberships at a lower price than car memberships, though with fewer features than car memberships. They also plan on having public trackdays from the beginning, starting in August. Maybe we should do a DIMBY Dirty Coast out of NOLA one of these years?

Farms in New Orleans are hard to come by...
But I'll see about a house in the next year or two
