Race track near NY for BMW owners??

Mbmw5 · 07-21-2013, 10:44 AM

Does anyone know of a circular race track in the northeast by New York that is open to street cars? Looking to take my new M5. Thanks for any feed back.

Looks like a gorgeous facility, but $$$$$$! I think a gold membership for me so I can drive my Bugatti Veyron up to 200 mph daily during the non-winter months. And sip a tall cool one with the other multi-millionaires when I'm done. I jest, but if I could afford it, I'd be there.

$25,000 just for Bronze Membership! Or something like that.

I think Silver is $40,000.

Otherwise, $1,200 for one day if you want to drive your own car on it.

Pocket change for some people. Life savings for others.

Yeah, it's all relative. Membership went up on 6/1/2013 to $40K for Bronze, $75K for Silver, and $125K for Gold. Gold has unlimited track time, Silver gets a whopping 15 days per season, and 12 days for the mere Bronze. Oh, and annual dues, on top of the membership go from $3,450 to $10,900. That's for about 8 months of useable track time in the northeast. If you want to bring a friend to drive also it will cost you $750 per day if you're a Bronze, $500 for Silver, and $250 for Gold.

I got a special promotion and was able to take my E60 M5 on their track with their instructor for he whole day. Definitely an awesome experience. The track and facility is awesome. It would be awesome for me cause I'm about 40 mins away. The downside is the cost. Overpriced in my opinion.

NJMP in New Jersey is probably way cheaper and you can go with BMWCCA

watkins glen is a great track and you will get the m5 up to 150 (speedo not gps) and way cheaper than monticello.

I wrote a review with the m5 here. Great track and plenty of runs
