The über rich always need somewhere to play with their latest track toys, and now there’s a new high-end ’driving resort’ recently opened in Japan that aims to best those already in business in Europe and the USA. It’s called the Magarigawa Club and there’s a race track, obviously, and an on-site fuel station to minimise time away from the circuit, plus fully crewed workshops, a temperature-controlled storage facility for hundreds of cars, and a helipad.
