moving on from that, you fly in and ship your car. this is actually 2 hours drive closer to charlotte douglas airport (CLT) vs fontana. so technically the trip is shorter since i assume you flew into that airport. i cannot remember for sure though.

I understand this was a test run so all is not clear. I don't have an issue with driving other roads for fun it just loses the magic of the Dragon being a world known destination.
Hell I am not against playing golf as I would have joined you. I love the game. I think you just lose some if the intimacy with not being held hostage and too many distractions.
As far as cost, transportation cost for vehicles will be up significantly as we generally have the car shipped to Atlanta or Nashville where we have a safe place to pick them up. The new venue adds a days drive for the transport and right now transport cost for big rig is more than double what it was pre pandemic. The other cost are nominal and just the cost to come party and hang out with you guys so that's not really an issue but $4k to bring my car is over the top.
