“Two driver” cars are allowed – two individuals, with separate paid registrations, may share one car instead of each person needing to drive their own car. Both drivers will still enjoy the same amount of time on the exercises as individual registrants. Each person must register separately under their own name. If registering as a two driver car, there is a field on the registration form to list the name of the other person that the car will be shared with. This information is important so that we can make sure to assign both people to the same group.

We allow any type of car that is in good running condition at our clinics. Cars do not have to be BMWs. We do not allow minivans, trucks, SUVs, or SAVs at the clinic due to their high center of gravity. We strongly recommend against bringing certain cars (typically hybrids/EVs such as older Toyota Prius models) to the clinic because their stability control systems intervene at relatively low levels and cannot be disabled. This makes it impossible to perform the clinic exercises properly, and severely limits the learning experience. Convertibles are allowed at the clinic. We reserve the right to reject any vehicle for safety reasons. If there is a question about the appropriateness of your vehicle, please contact us at carcontrol@ggcbmwcca.org.

Technical inspections will be performed on all cars on the morning of the school. Please see the Tech Inspection Form in the Student Packet. These are the items we will inspect so be sure your car will pass. Common problems that can keep you from participating may include: loose batteries, loose wheel bearings, and a spongy brake pedal. If you have an older car or a car with high mileage, please check these before the clinic. Prior to arriving, inflate your tires to about 38 psi. Inflating your tires to this higher than normal pressure will significantly reduce tire wear during the exercises.

Before registering, please read the entire Student Packet for important information and the required forms for the day of the clinic. Please also see the FAQs. The Teen/Family Car Control Clinic is similar to our regular car control clinics, but oriented specifically towards teen drivers and safety. Information about our regular car control clnics can be found at the Car Control Clinic Overview.

Each participant must register under their own name.
