Circuit de Catalunya: A high-speed resting place for racing fans

circuit-de-catalunya-555.jpg

Okay, here's something to ponder...

At some point you're gonna croak. It happens to everyone, right? Now instead of being placed in a traditional memorial park, or in an urn on some family member's hearth, race car fans can have their ashes scattered across the Circuit de Catalunya, which is near Barcelona, Spain.

Yep, for the price of about $1,950, and a $65 annual maintenance fee, you too can be run over by race cars and race bikes presumably forever.

Full story here.

Wait. I get my ashes /scattered/ over the grounds, and I still have to pay an annual maintenance fee? For what? I'm scattered!

I think the charge is for burial, not cremation.

Offer limited! Act now!

Why maintain it? Are they worried they won't be dead any more? :)

What happens if you stop paying the maintenance fee? Do they seek out all the scattered remains of your loved one and send them back to you?
