Lime Rock's Christmas Special: A Grand a Day!!

Post by brave1heart » Tue Nov 15, 2011 7:07 pm

"For $995, you can drive your own car at high speed - with a private instructor sitting "right seat" - on Lime Rock Park's iconic race track."

It's comforting to know that the fee includes liability insurance to protect the track itself but too bad the 5-series owner pictured above would have to buy his own insurance separately (optional). And for a grand a day, the food and drinks at lunch better be damn good! Yes, I'd like another free Shirley Temple, please. Does that private Club Chalet offer a full body massage with a happy ending as part of the package too?

Why don't they call it their "1%er day"?

It must be considered a "charitable deduction" somewhere.

Clearly we don't charge enough. Our instructors need more perqs. Caviar for lunch and Formula One tickets.

Yes, club events are a huge bargain by comparison!
