Ten Tenths Motor Club has established itself as a premier destination for automotive enthusiasts with the grand opening of its expansive 100-acre facility near Charlotte Motor Speedway. The venue's inaugural Heritage Invitational event showcased an impressive collection of historically significant and technologically advanced vehicles valued at over $500 million.
The competition's top honors went to two iconic models — ruce Meyer's 1979 Kremer Porsche 935 K3, a Le Mans champion restored to pristine condition, and Frederick Fischer's 1957 Ferrari 250 GT Tour de France, a storied racer with extensive competition history. These selections highlight the event's dual focus on both racing pedigree and elegant design.
The Ten Tenths Motor Club facility itself represents a significant development in motorsport hospitality, featuring a world-class road course designed by former F1 driver Alexander Wurz and a sprawling 20,000-square-foot clubhouse, created through collaboration between motorsport industry leaders Marcus Smith and Rick Hendrick.
