About this event
For the first time in several years, the Boston Chapter is proud to be returning to Lime Rock Park for a High Performance Driving School! Lime Rock Park is a 1.5 mile road course that earned the nickname "Road Racing Center of the East" over the course of its 55+ years of operation.
This will be a half day event, operating from 1pm to 6pm, with no sound restriction. Registration is limited to 40 students! This half day delivers even more time than sharing the track with the Lime Rock Club, with no waiting around for half the day! With no lunch break, we'll fit the regular Boston Chapter schedule into this time slot, so you can leisurely drive to the track on the morning of the event and still get your four on track sessions totalling 85 minutes.
To attend this event, you must have at least 8 days experience at High Performance Driving Schools (with a record of positive evaluations from your past instructors).
If you are a current particpant in the Boston Chapter's ISG program, you will have the opportunity to arrange for an additional 45 minutes of track time at an additional cost. Students in other chapter's advanced programs, such as A-Solo/S-Group, may apply to drive in ISG by emailing the registrar with their driving resume.
Registration Fees
This is a half day event providing a full day driving school worth of track time. You must provide information on your experience at the time of registration.
The student registration fees for this event are as follows:
| BMW CCA Member | Non-Member | |
| Until August 3rd: $325 | Starting August 4th: $345 | $450 |
Additional track time will be made available for an additional fee to Instructors and to Students who have successfully participated in the Boston Chapter's Intensive Study Group (ISG) at past events.
Wait-List Rules
Due to the limited number of student slots available for Boston Chapter driving events, it is common for us to receive more registrations than we can admit, hence a Wait-List will be created. Applications will be admitted from the Wait-List on a first come, first serve basis.
