This event is being run using BMW CCA rules.  Among other things, this means that open top cars must have full roll cages, race seats and harnesses.  Open top cars must also have a log book from a recognized race series such as SCCA, NASA or PCA.

Starting with this year's DE events BMW CCA at the national level has added a membership requirement. All participants at our DE events must be members of the BMW CCA. It's not necessary that you be member of the Badger Bimmer chapter but BMW CCA membership is required.  You can sign-up for a membership on our event registration page. We are offering reduced cost memberships ($30 instead of $48) through our registration page. We will submit your information and a payment of $48 to BMW CCA to establish your membership. The memberships offered through our registration page are available only to those that are not currently members. They are not available for renewing members.

If you need to renew your club membership you can call the national headquarters at 800-878-9292. When you renew be sure to ask for your membership number, you'll need it to complete your registration. You can also join the club by visiting the national BMW CCA web site.
