You may also register at the track from 8:00 am to 10:30 am during the day of the track events.
*Five rides will be provided per car. If there is rain, the cars will not be running. Since these are “vintage” race cars, there could also be the occasional mechanical issue that would keep a car from running on the track. We will do our best to move people around to other cars.

On the day of your ride, the BMW CCA Foundation will have a table near the BMW Motorsport Transporter at NJ Motorsport Park. We will set up from 8:00 am to 10:30 am. ALL pre-registered riders must visit the Foundation table. All participants will be required to sign a waiver for BMW NA. Each person will need to sit in the appropriate race car with a helmet on to verify you will fit in the passenger race seat. If you do not fit, we will attempt to find another car that will work for you. After you have signed the waiver and had your trial fit in the car, we will give you directions about where you need to be at 11:00 am. You will also receive a ticket or wristband for the rides.
If you don’t show up by 10:30 am the day of your ride, you will forfeit your seat in the car – no exceptions! No refunds for no shows! We will then fill empty seats with people on the waitlist or people available in the crowd.
