APEX Motor Club is turning up the speed in Arizona… but don’t just take our word for it, read what others are saying.
2020
No Experience Necessary
July 23, 2020 | RACER
The list of people who have gone from no construction or land development experience to laying down a ribbon of highly-specialized asphalt at a cost of $2 million per linear-mile must be pretty short. Two that definitely make the list are Matt Williams and Jason Plotke, co-founders of APEX Motor Club in Scottsdale, Arizona.
“My partner Jason and I both come from an automotive background. He worked for a tier-1 parts supplier and I worked in national sales at Barrett-Jackson,” says Williams. “Back around 2014, we had this idea to start our own driving business that would grow into a club. After several failures to get it going, we found this property 30 minutes from Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport. It was once a farm, so the land was laser-flat, with a beautiful view of the mountains and just what we were looking for.”
All along they felt that Phoenix in particular was an ideal place to see their vision through.
“There’s already an established car enthusiast community, plus January Car Week and other auction events happening here throughout the year, not to mention weather that’s conducive to driving events for all but a couple of the hottest months,” Williams goes on. “But neither of us had any experience as developers. It was a lot to take on.”
With the backing of a few founding members, they bought the 300-acre parcel and began making their vision a reality. The track was designed and installed with the help of Motorsports Services International, a global firm with clients including Daytona International Speedway and Phillip Island in Australia.
“The track was laid as one continuous strip of asphalt that has no longitudinal seams anywhere. We also have a number of paved runoff areas,” says Williams.
Construction began in April of 2018 and they were open by the following April. Now a year later, members are experiencing the first phase of the development, which includes the 2.27-mile Phase 1 circuit that will soon link with the Phase 2 circuit to form the 4.2-mile full circuit, all monitored by a state-of-the-art electronic corner flagging system. Forty-eight trackside condominium garages that open right onto pit lane a la Formula 1 will begin construction this year, with a second phase of condominiums and track to be completed within the next 24 months.
As a members-only club, there’s no waiting hours for organized run groups to get on track; just check in and drive, all of which can be booked via a custom phone app. But, APEX Motor Club isn’t just for high performance street cars.
“We have a members-only race series with both Radical classes and GT classes,” says Williams. “Plus we have a number of members that routinely run their historic race cars here including a car that’s twice won at Le Mans as well as some older Indy cars and even one of the cars that Dan Gurney raced in NASCAR. We’ve even had conversations with a few race teams that are considering Apex as a possible place to relocate their race shops to. What’s most gratifying are those members who started out in a street car and got a little faster, then invested in some coaching to improve further and now they are taking part in our Radical spec series.”
Indeed, it’s not only members with no prior racing experience now among the ranks of those chalking up race starts, it’s also the founders who went from an ambitious dream to successful reality that’s best days are still ahead.
ARRIVE AND DRIVE
As a fully private racetrack, membership at APEX Motor Club comes with a lot of perks, starting with as many as 275 days of unlimited track time for Platinum members who can be on track cranking out laps within minutes of arrival.
Just a 30-minute drive from central Phoenix makes it possible to steal away for an hour’s worth of lapping even for those with busy schedules.
The APEX Academy offers members of all skill levels a coaching program designed to allow for getting the most from their cars and the track. Plus there’s the APEX Race Series for some friendly, but intense wheel-to-wheel racing in a Radical, GT car or even Time Attack format.
Members also get access to exclusive events in town during the year and a Barrett-Jackson skybox during January car week. And, thanks to the club’s partnership with Lexus, there’s a fleet of cars available for family and guests as well.

German Accent, Italian Flair: How Audi Taught Lamborghini Quality
April 3, 2020 |nytimes.com
Before Lamborghini was Lamborghini, before it made exotic cars with pulse-quickening engines and stratospheric price tags, and before it ever dreamed of building an S.U.V., its founder built much more down-to-earth vehicles: tractors.
And in between its origin story on the farm in Italy in the 1940s and ’50s and its surprising success with the well-heeled who still want room for groceries, it dueled with Ferrari and unleashed a string of hit sports cars…Continue Reading >

Lexus Named Official Vehicle of New Motorsport Facility
January 10, 2020 |ClubLexus.com
Lexus partners with APEX Motor Club’s stunning new country club-style track facility in Maricopa, AZ.
When the Lexus brand was launched by Toyota back in 1989 its mission was to design and manufacture luxury cars that could compete with the best of the European automakers. Companies like BMW and Mercedes were squarely in Lexus’ cross hairs. Fast forward some 30 years and times have changed. While Lexus still produces incredible luxury cars it has also become synonymous with serious performance machines that are just at home tearing up a backroad as they are doing hot laps around a race track. That’s in large part thanks to the models like the LF-A supercar and F Sport line of vehicles. Lexus’ evolution into a maker of fast performance cars makes it all the more appropriate that the brand was recently named the Official Vehicle of APEX Motor Club…Continue Reading >

Their passion for performance vehicles and memories made at the track mirror ours in every way. We look forward to showcasing the Lexus products as well as continuing to work collaboratively in developing new track-based adventures for enthusiasts.”
As part of the Lexus sponsorship, APEX Motor Club will host Lexus VIPs and customers from all over the country. Lexus “RC F” and “GS F” performance vehicles will be available for use on track by members, their families and their guests. New Lexus signage already greets members and guests on the track, in the clubhouse and at the main entrance…Continue Reading >

Apex Motor Club is a motorsports country club, similar to a golf country club, but for motorsports enthusiasts. We did not invent the concept, as they exist in markets such as Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Chicago, New York and Miami, but we located Apex the closer than any other club to a major metropolitan area, and in a market with over 300 days of sunshine and year-round use.
Phoenix is an automotive enthused market with 2 NASCAR races, Barrett-Jackson week, and some of the best car culture in the nation, but is underserved from a motorsports perspective creating an opportunity for a club of this kind…Continue Reading >

APEX Motor Club Brings the Radical Experience to Arizona
September 13, 2019 | RadicalSportsCars.com
Radical continues to expand its North American network with this week’s appointment of APEX Motor Club, Arizona’s premier motorsports club as its latest dealer and track opportunity.
Just six months after opening, APEX has placed an initial three-car order of Radical’s best-selling SR3 track and race car in order to support its intensive programme of over 275 track days per year. The 2.27-mile circuit is already in operation with an additional 2.25-mile Phase 2 planned for construction in 2020.
“APEX Motor Club is excited to bring the Radical race car to our members and facility, due to its ideal combination of capability and driver enjoyment. The Radical SR3 is perfect for drivers of all backgrounds from gentleman racer to professional driver,” said Jason Plotke, President & Co-Founder of Apex Motor Club…Continue Reading
Collectors and Speed Freaks Take Car Condos for a Spin
August 29, 2019 | Wall Street Journal
When some people dream of a second (or even third) home or property, they imagine views of a pristine lake or a peaceful golf course. Not Julie Hertzberg. When it was time for her to take the plunge, she wanted thundering V-8 engines and the smell of hot rubber on pavement.
Ms. Hertzberg, 46, a managing director in the Detroit office of the financial consulting firm Alvarez & Marsal, and her husband Robert Hertzberg, 65, a partner with the law firm Pepper Hamilton, bought a car condo. The 1,200-square-foot unit started out as an empty box, and the couple turned it into a two-floor space. On the bottom floor is a garage with a polished concrete floor. The couple’s 2016 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 (bought new for about $105,000) and 2017 Ford Mustang Shelby GT350R (about $65,000) are considered two of the most high-performance cars ever built at their price-points, while their 2010 Ferrari 458 (about $235,000 in 2010) is no slouch. When time permits, the couple can be found throttling these vehicles on the high-performance test track that sits right outside their condo. Otherwise, the cars make for gleaming sculpture pieces…Continue Reading >
