Dale Seal is president of Sun Pacific Products, Inc. For more than three decades, he’s built Sun Pacific into an international food marketing company that provides a wide variety of industrial food products such as tomato and citrus products, a unique apricot purée, olive oil, garlic, and even pineapple products to customers such as fast food restaurants. Headquartered in Fresno, the company also has offices in Mexico and China.

Since the mid-1990s, Seal has split his time between his family home in Fresno and a home he bought and renovated in Carmel’s “Golden Rectangle.” Unfortunately, although his plans called for an expanded garage to store his small, but growing, car collection, the plans were rejected by the city.

Carmel’s first schoolteacher originally owned Seal’s Carmel residence in the village, and sometimes taught school there. So, as a historic structure, any changes had to be consistent with historic preservation guidelines — leaving Seal with just enough garage space to park his compact Fiat Abarth sports car.

Perfect Garage Solution

But with the opening of Monterey Motorsport Park, a unique garage-condo complex and car-driven community along Highway 68 adjacent to the Monterey airport, Seal has finally found the perfect solution.

“One of my biggest problems has been storing track cars that I like to drive at WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca, as well as other cars in my collection,” says Seal.

Monterey Motorsport Park is the ideal garage solution — giving me the storage space I need, plus room for a driving simulator and other “man cave” amenities.

Seal purchased his first garage-condo in Building D when the community was initially announced. But after moving his car collection into the unit when it opened earlier this year, he realized that, at 686 sq. ft., it was a bit too small for his needs.

“I decided to lease the unit to another user — it only took two days to find someone who really wanted my garage-condo,” Seal comments. “Then, I purchased another larger unit with nearly 1,000 sq. ft. in Building B.”

Seal is using the same builder who renovated his Carmel home to customize his new garage-condo unit with a sink with running water and a leisure retreat in the unique mezzanine 13-feet above the garage floor — built out with a refrigerator, comfortable seating area, driving simulator, and big-screen TV.

It’s a home away from home for me. In addition, I’m in a row with several other people from Fresno who have ties to the Monterey Peninsula and also bought garage-condos at Monterey Motorsport Park. We call our stretch of units ‘Fresno Alley.

People Make the Community

But what really makes Monterey Motorsport Park special is the people. “I’ve met a number of the owners and everyone is really nice.  There are so many car people and the owners are all willing to help out if you need anything.”

Seal continues, “It’s a really special environment — safe, spotless and well managed. I’m so happy we were able to find a place.”

In addition, Seal cites Monterey Motorsport Park’s location as a key selling point for him.

“It’s close to Monterey Regional Airport, so you can fly in and fly out. It’s also close to the raceway, minutes up Highway 68. And I’m a golfer, so the community puts me minutes from the club I play at. I can drop off a car, play a round, and then come back and hang out at the garage. What could be better?”
