Track/HPDE Events

Golden Gate Chapter hosts driving schools throughout the year at world-class venues like Buttonwillow, Laguna Seca, Thunderhill, and BMW Performance Center. High Performance Driver Education (HPDE) events require a BMW CCA membership and advance registration, which typically opens at least 2 months before the event.

Our first time back at Sonoma Raceway in quite some time. However, think of this as a kickstarter, we won’t run the school unless we meet our threshold for student registration (currently 50!) quickly. So to make this happen, we’re going to need your help!

Our focus is on safety and learning. Every student is assigned an in-car instructor for the duration of the event. (Group S drivers are solo, and can opt for data coaching.) Classroom sessions feature presentations and discussions of vehicle dynamics, car control, and corner-by-corner track details.
