....Good to see your getting this event going... I was almost ready to sign on the BMW Driving Experience course @$1200 in Jul/Aug.. but for a fraction this sounds equally appealing...So imma gonna hold off on that.... unfortunately; My circumstances were reading this too late and with a my newborn son around.. its going to be hard to come this weekend especially on such short notice with the wife.

I definitely would be interested in the novice instruction; since it would be my 1st attempt on a track.

This might be premature ; but if you are having a consecutive event I would be most interested...

I look forward to envy your experiences with vdo's and photoshoots from this excursion.

Keep an eye on the forum as there will definitely be other dates. The DDT is a great place for a novice to take their car to the track and see what it can do. Lots of instruction available at these days too. If your lucky you might even get me as an instructor....

Congrats on the newborn!

You can pivot it by the front wheels so the 10 mile turning circle can be reduced to about 145"

I think we will be OK on Sunday.We have had snow on the ground before when we first got there at 7.00am and got the full day in.The high is still 8c.
