I'm interested, but I don't have a bimmer or a helmet!

 

I want to go to this, even though I would be the only wagon probably, it sounds like a ton of fun!
Anyone know if a motorcycle helmet will work?

 

It will indeed, anything SA95 and up. I went to the last one and I was the only Subaru there. It was a lot of fun.

 

so wat happens when you dont have a bmw or a RWD car? Do you still learn all the same stuff?

 

"This is a BMW Club event for BMW drivers"

comon October, get with the program...All BMW's are RWD.

sounds like a fun event either way though and a good learning experience, even if you don't have a RWD car.

 

according to the site: "Registration is now open for the next Car Control Clinic, being held on January 22. All you need to attend is a car (BMW or MINI preferred)"

prefered, but not neccessary is wat i'm thinking.

the 325xi and 330xi is awd

and subiekid said he was the only subaru there so i assume he went in his subaru and particpated

 

Yup, you learn the same stuff. People thought the suby was cool. The instructors all wanted to drive it and they pushed me harder in the exercises because they said my car was more capable

There are 3 exercises; a skidpad, a braking/emergency lane changing drill, and a auto-x/slalom exercise. Even if you've got track time, it's still fun. And you can't beat the price for $70.

 

haha zoeb you got MOWDED!

edgar,

 

all right, I am gonna go.

 

so you dont need a membership in anything to attend? all u need is $70, an approved helmet, and a car, bmw/mini prefered but not required?

 

From the looks of it, sounds like that's all you need (car, helmet, and $70).

They probably put BMW/Mini preferred because this event is being thrown by a BMW club. Either that or the instructors are more familiar with bmws and minis.

Just sign up and have a blast

:banana:

 

I am going to be there as well.
You guys think that we will be looked down by the Bimmer dudes?

As long as you don't go in being cocky cause of your AWD and WRB. ;D

 

I neglected to mention that I am a member, but you don't have to be one. If you have a friend who is a member, then you can go as a guest I believe. Who wants to be my friend? JK...

The BMW guys are pretty cool and there's all type of people there; all ages and sexes. It was only about 75% BMW. One guy brought his Chevy pick-up truck with an LS1 swap.
