Non-notable sports venue, fails WikiProject_Event_Venues/Sports_task_force/Notability Oscarthecat (talk) 09:17, 9 November 2008 (UTC) 
 * Comment I don't think the club itself merits its own article, although the concept of a private auto racing club is notable. Until something more specific can be created, this is worth a mention in Car club.  There are private clubs like this, whose members pay for the upkeep of their own race track rather than a golf course.  USA Today took notice of the trend, referring to a similar group, the "Monticello Motor Club" .  Mandsford (talk) 16:27, 9 November 2008 (UTC)

 * Keep. If you expand the Google News search to all dates notability becomes obvious, with dedicated coverage such as this in the Chicago Tribune and this from ABC News. Phil Bridger (talk) 21:18, 20 November 2008 (UTC)
