BMW Driver Training

[4.6toddy]

I've looked at this for a few years ever since Audi cancelled their Canadian version of the same (when I was an Audi owner)

Wondering if anyone has taken any levels of the BMW Driver Training and any feedback?

Some people have taken delivery at the Performance Center in South Carolina and got some schooling there. As I recall, the reports were good. Do a bit of searching here. I think there were some write ups.

I took a training from BMW Canada, many years ago. It was Level 1 (3 levels were available). Level 1 was a car control clinic, with skid pads to experience oversteer and understeer. There were also many exercises like colision avoidance, and a little autocross at the end of the day. The price was higher than those same clinic offered by clubs, but BMW supplied the car (3 serie), and food.
Level 3 was on a track with a M3, but was a lot more expensive.

Edit: Forgot to add my feedback...
It was a good school. Even experienced / sporty drivers can benifit from the time behind the wheel. Before, it was possible to take your car to the shopping center parking lot, and exercise there, but today, in the 'new' society, you will get the po-po ticket you right away if you try to practice in a parking lot, so, those schools are worth it IMO.
The instructors they had were ex-racers with experience in higher level of racing.

definitely worth it. the roads would be a lot safer at higher speed if everyone took them...
