I've gone a few times and its a LOT OF FUN!! Also, CCA members get 15% off the normal rates if you book directly through the Performance Center.

However, this event we run twice a year, and it always sells out. While it's only a 1 day M School, its a great weekend. Plus, you won't beat the price anywhere

Damn, that is a low price. I got a taste of the PC weekend before last when I picked up my 2013. Only about an hour and a half of track time in an M3, and it made me want more. As in the pile of new M5s they had to try. The regular price is in the low four figures, but for mid three-figures it's a no-brainer. The staff at the "Greenville" Marriot (really the Spartanburg Airport Mariott) are just great, too.

Raja,

you mean M school? Um, yeah! It's a blast! Do the 2 day school if you can. Going down to SC for 1 day is hardly worth it (in my opinion). CCA members get 15% off.

don't you remember my review and video?

Yes, I went there after I bought my car, two years or so ago.

Hotel, food and ride from/to the airport are included. Don't forget to visit the museum and plant.

I did in february. Make sure you do the 2-day. It was a blast. After M-school i started taking my car to track. I drove the V10 M5, i guess you will be driving the new one. Enjoy!
