Default Thermal Club - All 3 Circuits Connected

Got a rare treat at Thermal last Thurs and Fri where they connected all 3 tracks (Desert, North and South) for us. The South circuit was abbreviated so we didn't get all 5.1 miles but hey 29 turns per lap was plenty!

Vid is following my buddies around. Sorry for the poor quality of my back up GoPro as my Waylens system wouldn't stay affixed to the windshield....so some noise feedback and no data overlay.

Enjoy.

I recommend not going. The track gives you 4-5 trackside professionals that check your tire pressures before and after each outing, change wheels/tires and even gas up your car. There are no run groups just go out whenever. Hardly anyone on the track so you have to plan to go out and see another car. Trackside has industrial size fans, lap timing, lounge area, cold towels, cold beverages, etc. The restaurant and other facilities are first class. It completely spoils you!!!!!!

Wow that track looks fun!! Lots of fast bends, I guess it's not an easy task to learn the best trajectories

Dont forget the cold wet towels they give you when you unbuckle and get out of the car in pit lane.

And the homemade cinnamon dusted pita chips are the best.

This is the best and fastest configuration, excluding the infield of the South Palm. I'm envious you got all 3 together. North Palm and Desert are very fun, the infield on the South however is hated by more than one Thermal member.

They must like you more than me.

I just get regular non-scented.

Although they do make sure to stock the pit lane fridge with extra chocolate covered bananas.

I'd like to go again sometime. Maybe reach out to James with GMG and get another group going.

I like that idea, but I'd only like to go in the winter time and when they have an extended track (i.e. where they link the track).
