Nearby Tracks

[maxofthewell]

Are there any nearby tracks in the maryland area that you can take your car on? I just got a new 325i with sports package and would like to test it out.

Also, ignoring damage to the tires, is taking my car out on the track for a few days going to do much considerable damage to the car? Can you buy used, worn down tires, to take on the track with you?

closest one to you would be Summit Point. Here is some info on it. Probably around 1 hour from you.

Summit Point is as said the closest to us folks in MD. Car Guys is having a DE there in a month or so i believe. You wont be able to "just take" your car out on a track. You will have to pay 200-400 bux for a school...and have instructors sit with you. Another option is to do a FATT (friday at the track) day. Your tires will take a beating...more over your brakes will get destroyed, depends on the driving that takes place.

Insurance wont cover anything that happens at the track

Actually, a lot of insurance companies cover damage if its a pure Driviers Education school. These can also be used to get insurance reduced if its a school thats certified in training.

They have an event in a month, dman thats going to be COLD!

there you go. Now all you got to do is ask your insurance company what their deal is with sanctioned track events.

I don't quite understand this question...Race, and cheap, never heard of such a thing
