I did the two day event there pre-pandemic and had a blast. Great track, great instructors, good food, beautiful weather.

Dang it was expensive though!

Yeah, I did a two day event, no sharing of the car, and it included a couple of nights at the hotel, transportation, etc. so it was not the bargain that this event is.

Lapping the Desert Track @ The Thermal Club. It's a 1.7 mile layout of the Desert incorporating connected cambered corners that mimic driving a mountain road, along with low and high speed sections similar to famous street circuits around the world.

BMW offers a (either full day or 1/2 day) solo seat in an M4 GT3 at Thermal. I so badly want to do it after seeing the pictures above.

I did the M4 GT4 race school last December in Thermal and it was EPIC!!! Driving a real race car on a private road course was incredible. Maybe one day they'll offer a GT3 car
