Thank you. Not sure why I never received an email from Gina about openings, but you saved the day.

I was going to post this too, I just got signed up for 4/7-8. Looking forward to starting my 2023 track season getting to beat on someone else’s car for a change. I was a little disappointed with how much brake wear I got in just two track days with my 4BW this fall, so it will also be interesting to see if they’re using stock pads or something else in the school cars.

Is it possible to sign up if you have a BW that’s been built but not delivered? I tried the VIN but it didn't work.

No you need to take delivery.
Not that you would, but say someone does the day and then bails on their purchase, so this mitigates against that.

Ha! That's my default
Again no one would really do this - and it's still a semi manual process so they would vet you out of it - but you could go find a BW listed at a dealer and plugin that VIN and sneak in. Hey weren't you here last week?

If you're itching to have a go, you could join the VClub and do a 1 day academy next month for ~$1200. It's not going to be as all encompassing/focused as a 2-dayer ovviously but you can still get multiple sessions on track in a BW.

Thanks for the update, I made my reservation April 28th!

I just signed up for 19-20 too. No 4BW manuals available, so I'll drive the 4BW auto.

Bought my car June 13 of this year and had to get in under the 1 year wire.

bummer, I've been passing up on dates until a manual 4 was available. I was June30th so I also was getting close to the 1 year haha. I did manage to reserve a manual 4 at least

They'll extend the 1 year requirement if you ask nicely.

Thanks - it's honestly not that important for me to have a manual on the track.

Ya when I was trying to get to V Academy NOW NOW NOW! I was thinking I'd take an auto, cause while it would be good to be in the 'same' car, it's all about car dynamics and while the physical interaction is a bit different, it ain't that much of a thing.

And it means you can come back on here and say "ya but..." in any M6 v A10 threads

Agreed. New car, new track, etc. One less thing to think about.

When I do get on track next year in my own car, I'll be in a novice group anyway with an instructor in the passenger seat. And not pushing as hard since it's actually my car.

Bingo. I don't want to take mine out until getting my feet wet and really understanding my limits (the car's will always be greater) as you cannot get close, nor should you, on roads.

I just wanna destroy some else's clutch
