    Just found this old thread and thought it might be time to revive it.

    It's coming soon!

    Regular memberships etc. for sale by March 2/18! Look for their Badlands web page for updates prior to March 2.

    Just curios of how many beyonders went to last nights presentation, or are going to the next one? Did you buy in ? What do you think of the overall presentation. Do you think the vision and design is enough or too much for Albertas lowered economy? The idea of a resort out there having year round value in our climate, I dunno....

    I think the pricing is very reasonable. I'll probably pick up a bronze membership in a couple of years once the kids are old enough and I can leave them alone more.

    Funny how long this project took. When it was first announced, I had my chequebook ready. Now, I don't even have a track worthy car and 3 kids to feed.

    I went and was fairly impressed. My dad bought a membership and I likely will be buying one too.

    Apparently somewhere between baller level Twin_Cam_Turbo and baller level rage2 - judge yourself accordingly.
    Will fuck off, again.

    To answer the question above:

    We didn't get into the details of the resort aspect at the presentation, because the focus was in memberships.

    Since 2015, we have had tremendous support from the Province, Alberta Tourism, Alberta Economic development, and the Canadian Badlands organization because they really want a resort in the Badlands. There is no resort in the whole region, and there is a govt push to bring tourists there for more than day trips, including the international Asian tourist market. The location lends itself to a resort because of the location. We are already in discussion with three hotel brands about a potential joint venture for building a hotel out there as soon as the road and infrastructure is built.

    We also didn't discuss the residential aspects because that is something that is likely 5-7 years out, which we would hope there is a better economy by then.

    We also didn't go into great depth on the winter programs, but most of the revenue comes from turning the valley track into a snowmobile park by covering it with snow with snow making equipment. And then lapping days on the top course at a cheap rate with an indoor paddock so you don't have to get out of your car all day. It's done at Miller/Utah Campus in salt lake and has been quite successful, so much so that they are now having winter time attack event. It's mostly and EVO/STI thing, though.

    Technically with a $12500 membership you could get in 16 free track days from May 1st to Aug 31st, so yeah about one per week.

    Hence the not quite! Either way there was enough value for me to put down a deposit.

    Will the membership price increase as we get closer to the date the track is operational?

    No. But there could be some discounts before.

    Put my deposit down. Hopefully the community puts their money where their mouth is, and we see a racetrack soon!

    Wonder if there will be access for non-members?

    With it being a bit far from Calgary and trailering my car in I don’t think I’d get much more than 6-7 uses per year. But it would still be nice to have access.
