To "kcdude24" - My friend did ED, re-delivery at PC & then did M School, before driving back to Texas. You can do it. He was also tempted to go do the tail of the dragon on the afternoon he picked up the car before M School dinner, but there just wasn't enough time.
yes, sorry i wasn't clear. you only get helmet for 2 day

And they pay for 2 days hotel for a one day school?? Too bad it's in the middle of no where.
there is track time for first day, but it's a shorter track, and the max you get is right above 100mph.

at least for me and people i know, 2 day hotel paid for 1 day school (night before and night after)

I bought my M3 in 12/08, and went to the "free" 1-day M-School finally in 11/09.
.....and now I get this card in the mail with some extended offer for the M-school, AGAIN! I'm thinking this is some kinda mistake, but hey if they're offering I'm doing it again (total blast!). I'm scared to call them cause they'll probably realize the error, right? Would love to use this and upgrade, pay the difference for the 2-day at VIR...

Paying customers may be getting priority on date choice (good bet), but I can tell you for certain that they are not getting a different experience. The reason I know this is because when I attended the M School last year, the class was a mix of both paying customers and those that got free passes.

I hope that is the case. We're dropping off in Munich on June 30th and 6 weeks puts re-delivery around August 13th. Right now they have 3 open dates for paying customers within about 10 days (Aug 15,18,24). Yet when I got approved for the complimentary 1-day M school they gave me dates of either Aug12 or Sept 12. So one date might be prior to the car arriving and the next too long after unless I can swap over to the other dates. It also looks like the only 2-day school is Aug 12...bummer.

I'll be able to report back in late August.
