BMW Track Day at Pocono Raceway

Got to spend the day on Tuesday at Pocono Raceway on BMW's and my local dealers dime burning up the M2, i8, 650i, 650i GC, and the new 750i.

The day started with getting out of the car signing my life away then being asked do you want to drive the i8? I couldn't move fast enough. For the first "hybrid" I've ever driven it was quite the experience.

After we were formally oriented we were broken into groups. I was then taken to the main road course where we were broken in to 2s. This was for follow the leader. 4 groups of 6 drivers that were lead by Pro Drivers (Driving the M5 & M6 GC). We were given the opportunity to drive through Pocono's road course with the 750i, 650i, & 650i GC. All with xDrive & All seasons tires equipped (Made the 6ers a little squirrely) . The 750 is a beast for the size of it!

Then the real fun started. We were then taken to an Autocross track where they had coned off a course for us to experience the M2. Get in, buckle up, release the e-brake, put in drive and go! We were timed against our group and were told to go as fast as we could and really experience what the M2 had to offer. UNREAL car.

We then reconvened at the main track. We then had the opportunity to ride with the pro drivers handling the M Cars. It was like being on an M version of a roller-coaster.

Not too many pictures were taken. They always had us behind the wheel of something!
