Thanks!
well, i am not sure of the exact track length, but it is probably around two miles. according to the guide, the track has different bumps, turns, and surfaces to test the noises and proper function of the car.

go to the regensburg factory's website (google it) and then send them an email requesting a tour. Just tell them how many are in your group, whether you want german or english, and they'll tell you times that are available. they do tours at 830 and 1330.

But, you better watch out, I hear that the BMW police are after you now.
