BMW DRIVING EXPERIENCES

Congratulations! You’ve just bought a brand-new BMW. No doubt you understand what makes each model best-in-class, but what about best-on-track?

Each new BMW that’s purchased comes with the opportunity to book two seats behind the wheel of a variety of BMWs similar to the one you’ve purchased. You’ll get to experience driving at the limit on our closed course, and leave with a new appreciation for what your own BMW can do.

With a combined 717 horsepower on tap, our latest M5 Sedan and M5 Touring are like no other. This Experience will take you through the M5’s various drive modes during six laps of thrills, from a warm-up using pure electric power to a combination of electric and conventional V-8 thrust with full throttle.

It’s unlike anything you’ve driven on track before.

Welcome to the world of electrified power. For this 90-minute Experience, you’ll hop into a variety of all-electric BMWs such as the i4 M50, i5 M60, i7 M70 and iX M60, and unleash their full potential in our Drag Race, going head-to-head with other participants. Then take a sample of their amazing grip and balance during a Performance Drive Experience on our closed autocross course. It’s time to unlock the next generation of thrills. Vehicle availability will vary.

This is the real deal. Featuring our most powerful and responsive vehicles, you’ll get behind the wheel for six exhilarating laps and up to one hour at one of three Thermal Club racing circuits in California. Follow an instructor’s car for a warm-up lap as they quickly bring you up to speed. Then, try to keep their car in your sights as speeds and g-forces increase, pushing your M car to its considerable limits. Can you keep up with them while maintaining control? Two people per car, based on class size. This event uses the BMW M3 or M4, subject to availability.

The BMW Track Meet is an enjoyable driving and dining event that elevates business networking, client entertaining and gift-giving to a whole new level.

This half-day session includes a delicious chef-prepared lunch and three exhilarating driving sessions with our Performance Drive, Rat Race and Timed Autocross on our handling course. BMW models driven are subject to availability. Two people per car, based on class size.

Every instructor at the BMW Performance Driving School has years of professional racing experience under their belts. Spend some time with them at the track for one-on-one instruction, and their sole focus becomes making you a better driver. Available upon request, private instruction can make for both a memorable experience and training to propel you to the next level of driving competition.

Sessions scheduled any day between 8 am and 4 pm may be scheduled up to 14 days in advance based on availability. Sessions scheduled during daylight savings time hours between 4 pm and 8 pm may be scheduled up to 3 months in advance.

This hour-and-a-half program contains a sampling of various BMWs on our handling course. Head to the track and rotate among various BMWs, driving each through tight corners and fast straightaways. It’s a ride you won’t soon forget.

Then, take the wheel of an X vehicle as you follow an instructor through our challenging off-road course, with steep hill climbs, treacherous ruts and loose terrain. Exercises and vehicles are subject to change.
