One-Day Driver's School
Learn the basics of car control at One-Day School. Start with a 45-minute classroom session to go over key concepts, then take it to the track for exercises involving the wet skid pad and panic braking. After lunch, you’ll head back for the Handling Course, and finally a timed lap to bring together everything learned that day. It’ll make your morning coffee seem redundant.

Two-Day Driver's School
Two-Day School includes everything from One-Day School, plus the Double Lane Change Course and interstate braking from 70 mph. Then, you’ll head to the Off-Road Course to pilot X vehicles through adverse conditions. Finally, enjoy a Performance Drive, where you can take three different BMW models around our track, and learn the unique handling characteristics of each. Prepare for two full days of adrenaline.

One-Day M School
You can't beat physics, but you can try. This school is about learning, understanding and practicing the basics of dynamic driving. Instructors jump right in to developing skill and technique with a brief classroom discussion. Then it's out to the track. Practice finding the proper driving line, braking into a corner, panic braking and the difference between slipping and a controlled drift. After a morning session of adrenaline pumping action, we break for lunch. The second half of the day sees you putting your new skills into action with our autocross, timed laps and skid pad time. This is one class you definitely want to graduate from.

Two-Day M School: The first day of this school includes every heartrate-raising exercise from One Day M School, setting up a good base for day two
focusing on more of the details. After a brief refresher in the classroom, you'll drift the wet skidpad for figure 8s, practice proper vision and driving the line, learn to brake to maximize speed and minimize time and controlling the car through uneven stretches of tarmac. Each exercise builds upon the previous one, giving you the skillset you need to really shred some tires consistently. In the end, you'll be able to string together all the lessons learned and harness all that M power into a single fast lap around the track. What you've learned will carry through to both your own track days and everyday drives. Participants in Two-Day and Advanced M School will be given a two-night stay at the Greenville Marriott. Also included in your stay will be a voucher from the hotel for a welcome dinner, two breakfast vouchers, ground transportation to and from the track and dinner at the Performance Center with the instructors after the first day of class.
