Here is a fond look back at what was one of the most unique restaurants in the world.
So what happened with Race Rock?
Such a unique place... one of a kind.. a shrine to motorsports.
It didn't go out of business because of bad sales. The owner made the decision to accept a $7.5 million offer when he only paid a couple of million for it. Put 5 mil in the pocket and walk away...you bet!
The property was sold to a company that wants to open a high-end "Boutique" type restauraunt on the site. They finally built another restaurant there, just another boring corporate clone.
