Recommend opportunity for track time?

Ok the car's now run in. What is a good Bimmer friendly opportunity for track time (I am in Sydney) ?

Note I have track experience but am after the opportunity to get it on the track in a sensible controlled crowd with little likelihood of idiots around.

Thanks. I have done CAMS super sprints in the past and club sprints tend to be run along the same lines. I am after something with fewer participants.

I noticed in a post of yours you mentioned Wakefield. That is my preferred track for tracking this car. What event were you doing and was it in the 235?

I haven't driven a track day for a while and not in my M235i. I am the Race Director for the NSW BMW club trackdays and sometimes do some instructing also. I've done a few Motorkhanas in the M235i though.

Wakefield is the ideal track to start with.

Ok great. Would you recommend the club days in my new pride and joy? Or something more restricted?

Agreed on Wakeifiedl hence my choice also. I wouldn't do it at SMP. I had thought of booking WP myself and having a select few invited.

These track days are one of the safest organised. We put cars on track in smaller groups based on their speed, keeping cars/drivers with large lap time differences apart.
