About this event

This event is sold out but please go ahead and sign up for the wait list.  Wait listed students will be accommodated in the order in which they registered if any slots become available. Thank you for your interest!

If you want to register as an instructor or volunteer staff, please go to the workers registration page.

Before registering, please read the entire Car Control Clinic Overview for important information and required forms for the day of the event. Please also see the FAQs. This event is based on the Car Control Clinics but with an introduction to Autocross too; also see the Autocross Overview for more information on autocrossing. (You will not need to register or classify your car for this event).

 

This is the BMW CCA Golden Gate Chapter’s first ever Motorsport Day for women only!

If you are new to motorsports or want an opportunity to develop your car control skills with other like-minded women, this is your chance!

 

This is an all-day combined Car Control Clinic and Autocross. We are offering women a more relaxed, less testosterone-fueled introduction into motorsports. This event combines class lecture time with lots of driving time. We will start the day learning and practicing various driving skills, and finish the day running an Autocross course that builds on those skills.

The Motorsport Day is intended for drivers interested in improved street safety, improved car control skills for autocross, or for drivers who want an extra level of preparation before attending a High Performance Driving School at a track.



 

Each participant drives her own car and receives personalized instruction provided by experienced club and motorsport instructors.

 

The October 22, 2016 Women’s Motorsport Day will be held at Marina Airport, in Marina, CA, just north of Monterey. 

Check-in for registered students opens at 7:30 AM. The event concludes at 5:30 PM.

 

The cost is $140 for BMW Car Club of America (CCA) members, $188 for non-club members. Non-member registration includes one year membership in the BMW CCA. Lunch is included.

Event requirements


Registration and payment must be made in advance by filling out and submitting an on-line application. The roster will be filled on a first come, first served basis. Each driver must register separately in her own name and have their own Motorsportreg.com account. Only on-line credit card payment or electronic check will be accepted. You may not register at the event.

Because you must be a member of the BMW Car Club of America to participate, with the non-member registration option, you purchase a BMW CCA membership with your registration. Alternatively, you may contact the national office at 1-800-878-9292 to become a member. You do not have to own a BMW to join the BMW CCA.

If you live in a household with an active club member, you may call the national office of the BMW CCA to become an associate member for $10. If you go that route, provide your associate membership number with your registration.

Unlike our other Car Control Clinic events, helmets are required for this clinic. Your helmet must meet the BMW CCA’s helmet standards (Snell SA or M, 2005 or later) and must be inspected at check-in. We will have helmets available at the event for loan (no charge) but do bring your own if you have one.

 

Your car will have to pass a technical inspection at the event. The tech inspection form will be sent to registered students ahead of time (as part of the Student Packet) to allow you to check your car ahead of time.

We do not allow most SUVs at the clinic due to their high center of gravity. Porsche Macans, Cayennes and BMW X1s and X6s are ok; if you have another SUV, contact us to find out if it is allowed. Convertibles are allowed at the clinic. If there is a question about the appropriateness of your vehicle, please contact us at wmdaycoordinator@ggcbmwcca.org.

Please read the entire Car Control Clinic Overview for important information and required forms for the day of the event. Please also see the FAQs. This event is based on the Car Control Clinics but with an introduction to Autocross too; also see the Autocross Overview for more information on autocrossing. (You will not need to register or classify your car for this event.)

Each participant must have her own motorsportreg.com account and must register under her own name. 

Please contact us WMDayCoordinator@ggcbmwccc.org if you need additional information.
