Archive photos needed! Our June 2-3 event to benefit the Westlake School will be even bigger and better this year as it coincides with the 40th Anniversary of the NJ Chapter’s first driver school! In addition to our on-track activities (described below), we are planning a slideshow of driving events through the years to be shown at our Monday evening trackside banquet. If you have any old photos or documents from previous schools or races, please digitize them and email to me (jwhite@njbmwcca.org). Pictures of cars are welcome but pictures of people are even better. It is our members who make our club strong.
As we have for the past three years, the event will include a driver school, BimmerWorld Club Racing school and BMW CCA Club Race. In addition to these usual activities, we are planning a visit from the DelVal/NJ Vintage owners group on Monday who will bring their beautiful classic BMWs to the track, take a couple of parade laps and have them on view for everyone to enjoy. BMW NA is planning to bring an interesting car or two to use as a pace car (and maybe give some rides). Then on Monday evening we will have our banquet when we celebrate the 40th Anniversary, recognize the contributions of some of our long-standing members, give away some great door prizes and auction some interesting items to benefit Westlake. Who knows, we may have a few more tricks up our sleeves. On Tuesday we will be visited by students and staff from Westlake School. They enjoy lunch, are treated to parade laps, watch the feature race and participate in the awards ceremony. The smiles and laughter of the Westlake students is the highlight of our year.
The event is filling quickly so register now and avoid being placed on the wait list. If you cannot participate as a driver then please come down as a spectator - there will be much to watch and if you want to stay for the banquet (maybe pick up a door prize), we accept payment at the door. See you at the track.
