  • Race School at CTMP April 26 and 27

    Race School at CTMP Grand Prix circuit on April 26th and 27th
    Hosted by Trillium Club: www.soBMW.ca
    ONLY $649 all in for 2 days, Saturday dinner included!

    If you’re considering advancing to the racing ranks, or simply wish to progress to new concepts and on-track experiences, then this is the weekend for you!

    The weekend will consist of an intensive program of four classroom and four track sessions each day. The curriculum will cover such topics as race rules, race craft, mental preparation, practice and qualifying techniques, surviving the start, etc. On-track sessions will consist of a variety of exercises, including multi car wide driving, leap-frog passing, practice starts, simulated qualifying, etc. They will culminate in a practice race on Sunday (optional). Note there will be no instructors in the student cars, but they will be always present in both the classrooms and on the track.

    After successfully graduating you will have satisfied the educational requirement to apply for a BMWCCA Club Race license. We are also working for this school to qualify you to apply for a CASC-OR Regional Race license.

    Important Pre-Requisites:
    1) You must posses significant experience as a “solo”/”signed off” student. You will NOT be instructed how to drive on a track at this school.
    2) All candidates must submit their driving resume to the Race School chief instructor – Allan Lewis (allan-lewis@rogers.com). Once accepted, Allan will advise you how to register.
    3) All candidates must be members of BMWCCA. If you are already a member, include your membership information with your driving resume. If not, Trillium will register you with BMWCCA at our cost (upon acceptance).
    4) All candidates must be members of Trillium, or other CASC-OR affiliated club. If you are not, please join Trillium at www.soBMW.ca ref “Membership” tab.
    5) All regular pre-requisites apply, as with any other Trillium event. Please ensure you review the information at: www.soBMW.ca ref “Schools” tab.

    Make It a Three Day Event!
    And also sign up for Advanced Solo day on Friday, April 25th following its registration link at www.soBMW.ca home page. It is a fantastic deal and offers tons of seat time. Note this event also requires attendance pre-approval. Ref #5 above for details and pre-requisites.

    Race School Instructors
    Experienced and qualified racers are invited to help instruct at this event. If interested, please contact Allan Lewis directly – do NOT register as an instructor on the Trillium web site as that link is for our ADS (HPDE) instructors. Note that Friday lapping event is FREE for those who commit to instruct on Saturday and Sunday.

    AN UPDATE:
    Great news – we are going to run the school in partnership with CASC-OR, hence graduates will qualify for both the BMWCCA and CASC Regional racing licenses.

      The BMWCCA events are excellent. I've done "Bimmers across the border" twice and love it. Very well organized.
      I wish I was closer! I'm shooting for "The Glen" this year.

        That's pretty cool!

        I have no qualifications so I guess I'll have to keep street racing instead :S Cheaper anyway. 8P

                Well, assuming you live in Alberta, there is a pretty nice road course close to Edmonton: Castrol Raceway If you ever wanted to make a trip to Ontario: sign up with Truillium School at CTMP (aka Mosport). I know at least 1 guy that actually made this trip LOL!
