how much seat time do you get?

I got 30+ runs yesterday, didn’t even stay the whole day. 40 sec laps ish. The hired instructors do all the chores - there is no work detail. It’s half pad, so the runs are short. The whole course is coned - no worries about getting lost or course maps etc.
Again, I think this is the ideal event for first timers - no egos, no competition, run any car (basically no tech) and have fun. It’s a bit more money (160ish) but that pays for 4 instructors that will help out all day and run the course, and a catered lunch is included
It would also be perfect for test and tuning a suspension setup etc. You can pull out of grid anytime to mess with a setup
Google BMWCCBC for more details on dancing with cones events
EDIT: link to the next one june 24 w more info https://bmwccbc.org/event/dancing-wi...instance_id=70

loose - there was a mustang out there yesterday that I'm sure was louder. I've never seen anybody get checked. But it's in writing for a reason I guess.
That's the limit for all pad events I think.

how much seat time do you get? | Buy a helmet condom LOL. UBCSCC is significantly cheaper tho, $50 for non-ubc students (not sure about alumni), $22.50 for current ubc students.
UBC auto-x events give you 20 runs tho, a lot more course work, and not catered lunch.
Correction: Did a total of 10 runs.

you probably get more value out of a track day for seat time

Theres a guy named Dennis Cee on our scooter page, he's had all sorts of cubs. Probably the best person to talk to and might have spare parts.

77 registered, but I think there was only 40 cars or less than showed up. Somehow, indexed times show 85. Weird.

I've seen a family of 3 (dad, mom and son) drive the same BMW and compete each other on time. Must be fun because my wife doesn't even want to sit in my car.
