Laguna Seca Lawsuit: Homeowners Perplexed as Iconic Race Track Materializes Overnight

Imagine the shock if, after moving into your home, you discover that a popular and world-renowned race track had materialized overnight in your general vicinity. The horror.

You’d rightfully be confused, possibly even enraged at such a happening, and keen to pursue a lawsuit.

Believe it or not, this is exactly the phenomenon that unfolded recently. Based on our deepest reporting capabilities, we can find no evidence that WeatherTech Raceway at Laguna Seca ever existed before 2023.

As expected, this sudden and unexpected conjuring has local residents incensed, as the noise and traffic from the venue came out of nowhere and was a shock to those who had moved into the area over the preceding handful of years.

Naturally, residents have banded together to get rid of this nuisance that definitely has not been in the same location since 1957.

The group, the Highway 68 Coalition, filed suit against Monterey County, which operates the fledgling track, on December 12, 2023, seeking to curtail racing at the venue.
