High Center of Gravity Vehicles (HCGs) such as SUVs, SAVs, Trucks, Jeep-type vehicles, and Minivans will need to be verified.  The older HCGs without electronic stability control (not just the electronic traction control) will not be accepted.

HCG vehicles may still be limited with respect to the exercises in which they are allowed to participate based on local venue conditions. 

Please look up the HCG vehicle safety score. You can research the safety ratings that a vehicle has received at  www.safercar.gov. and their rating test at www.safercar.gov/Safety+Ratings.

This review is for HCG vehicles only. Passenger cars do not need to be reviewed.

Any vehicle with a listing of 3 stars or more out of 5 in the Roll Over test will be allowed to participate in our class. We are concerned about the Roll Over test on the HCG only.We are not concerned about the crash test ratings.

Any HCG vehicle listed as “not tested” in the Roll Over test will not be allowed to participate.

 

This Street Survival school will take place at the National Capital Chapter's annual "ChapterFest" celebration at Bowie Baysox Stadium in Bowie, Md.  Because of this special circumstance, the registration for this particular Street Survival school is two-pronged.  After completing your Street Survival registration here you will need to complete the ChapterFest 2010 registration at www.chapterfest.com. Click "Chapterfest Registration".

When you click on "ChapterFest Registration if will take you to Motorsportreg.com.  If you do not have an MSReg account, you will be required to create one. If you already use MSReg, then you only need to sign into your regular account. The sign-up process is free and takes only a few minutes. You only provide as much information as you want (Emergency contact is required). This service was started by a BMWCCA member and they do not sell personal information to third-parties. 

 When you complete the ChapterFest registration it will give you a general admission of $16 due for each person attending Street Survival with the student. You will receive a credit for one (1) student and one (1) parent (i.e. student Johnny, mom, dad and a sibling attend Street Survival, the total due is $64 or $55.50 (if the sibling is between the ages of 5-12). You will subtract $32 (the ChapterFest general admission amount for two (2) people) from your total and the difference is what you must pay to complete your registration for ChapterFest 2010.  When registering for ChapterFest, if the credited parent would like to participate in and registers for any other ChapterFest activity (Autocross, Karting, Concours, DIY, Ladies' DIY, Detailing Tech Session, etc.) outside of Street Survival, you will not receive a credit for that general admission fee, but the student will still receive a credit.

We apologize in advance for the extra registration steps and hope it does not deter you from enrolling your student in a course providing life saving driving skills.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to email the registrar for this school at streetsurvival@chapterfest.com or the chairperson of ChapterFest at registration@chapterfest.com. Also please visit www.chapterfest.com for more information about this great event.
