Nürburgring BMW Driving School
2012
Welcome to the Nürburgring Driving School website for members of the BMW Car Club of America. This event gives BMW CCA members a chance to experience the hallowed place where the world's best cars, including every BMW model, are perfected for production. Over its 13-mile length, the North Loop of the Nürburgring includes about every type of turn known to man, over 170 in total. The so-called "Green Hell" climbs and plunges through about 1000 ft. of elevation change, and fits in a 2-mile-long straightaway for good measure. There's nothing like it!
As of mid-March, the prospects for a 2012 Nurburgring School do not look good. The only dates offered to the German Club organizers were in November - clearly not a realistic timeframe. One ray of hope came with the German government’s termination of the contracts with the management team responsible for the sad state of affairs in recent years. While that happened February 29, it remains to be seen whether a new track management will improve our situation for this - or future - years.

For now, the German organizers are still trying to get a suitable slot for this year, but they are not optimistic. Any developments will be posted on this webpage, the BMWCCA site and the email list (contact Ringschool@magma.ca).
In the meantime, use this website as a resource.
There is information about the track, pictures, and FAQs.

The International BMW Driving School at the Nürburgring is not an official BMW CCA event, but has been conducted by a German BMW Club annually since 1964. This website provides information for BMW CCA members who wish to experience the ultimate racetrack. The BMW CCA package includes all arrangements with the School organizers, a commemorative shirt and nametag, special activities before the School, and lodging reservations, all intended to make it easier for you to participate.
