2012 "Frost on the Pumpkin" Driver's School


THE INFORMATION ON THIS PAGE HAS BEEN UPDATED

PLEASE READ IT CAREFULLY NO MATTER YOUR LEVEL OF EXPERIENCE!


These requirements may significantly affect your ability to participate in our event. Reading and complying with these requirements will avoid future issues or disappointment if we are forced to decline your application.

A Snell 2005 or newer certified helmet is required; a limited number of loaners are available

All drivers must be licensed drivers 18 years of age or older. All participants must be current members of the BMW Car Club of America. Online and printable paper membership application forms are at:  Click Here

CONVERTIBLES

Convertibles must have an approved aftermarket roll bar installed. The roll bar must be high enough that the driver's helmet clears a line between the top of the roll bar and the top of the windshield by one inch or more. Factory roll hoops or bars typically don't meet this requirement. Self deploying roll hoops are not considered to meet this requirement. Properly installed 4, 5 or 6 point harnesses are also required. (See 4,5, and 6 POINT BELTS below for more information.) The convertible top must be in place.

Please be aware that most instructors will not instruct in a convertible. If you have a convertible complying with our requirements, we will make all reasonable effort to identify an instructor willing to ride in a convertible, but can not guarantee that we will be successful.

4, 5 and 6 POINT BELTS

If your car has been modified with aftermarket or racing belts installed, all aftermarket or racing belts must be installed according to the manufacturer’s instruction. Please note: shoulder belts must pass through, not around any seat headrest and anti-submarine straps must be routed through a center hole in the seat designed for that purpose. This requires that the seats be designed to accept harnesses. Stock seats modified by cutting holes in the material are not acceptable. Shoulder belts must pass through the seat’s head restraint for the harnesses to be effective. Seats with integral head rests must have holes designed for shoulder belt routing. The use of a sternum strap will not help meet this requirement. A roll bar or cage is not required, but it is highly recommended.

No SUV's, trucks or motorcycles are allowed.

Contact the event registrar for more information or with questions.

 

ALL PARTICIPANTS ARE REQUIRED TO BE CURRENT MEMBERS OF THE BMW CCA, 18 YEARS OF AGE OR OLDER, LICENSED IN ANY U.S. STATE, AND SIGN WAIVERS FO LIABILITY. No one is allowed onto the track during a school session without an approved Snell 2005 or later helmet. All vehicles must pass a Tech Inspection as dictated by our event policies. Not only do our schools always conform to the safety requirements of Gateway International Raceway, but the minimum standards of the operations of BMW CCA as well. Every provision for your safety and well being are mandated by our procedures and processes, including full time attendance of certified emergency personnel and support.

We believe a safe school is an enjoyable one for everyone and take all reasonable action to assure your safety, but can not eliminate all risks. Insurance coverage typically applies to any on track event since this is not a competitive event. Liability coverage, however, does vary widely among providers and we recommend checking with your own insurance company or agent for details of your specific coverage and liability.
