High Performance Driving School


  • Buttonwillow Raceway (map)

Learn to drive your BMW as it was designed to be driven! Join the San Diego and Central California BMW Chapters on March 7 & 8 for our High Performance Driving School at Buttonwillow Raceway. We appreciate the support of BMW/MINI of Escondido & Brecht Motorsports, Independent Motorcars, and Oceanside Motorsports.

Buttonwillow is an accessible and challenging racetrack, making it a great place to learn the art of high-performance driving from a dedicated team of experienced Instructors. These BMW CCA instructors are qualified via an intensive two-day instructor training program to ensure your safety and a consistent, high quality learning experience. Drivers that come through our programs are some of the safest and most capable drivers you will find on the track. We have refined our program to offer a structured school not available through any other program at this price point.

Our event is focused on driver development, not just an open track day. We emphasize safety, learning and having fun. Students will have an extensive classroom curriculum along with a dedicated in-car instructor. The price for this two day event is $395 for new students, and only $350 for returning students. All entries include lunch both days and all the water you need at the event. The price increases $50 on February 8, so sign up early! All Entrants must be BMW CCA members. To join, go to bmwcca.org and tap Join Today.

Our HPDE schools receive rave reviews from driving enthusiasts every year. You’ll go home with new skills, a heightened awareness you can apply to your daily driving, as well as some great memories of doing laps at this fantastic racetrack.
