Driving M5 at Lime Rock

I got an email today from BMW Performance Center for a M5 drive 4-day event at Lime Rock park in October for $2500.
Anyone been to such events before and is it worth $2500.

I received the same email. The agenda looks a lot like the agenda for the M5 Driving Experience that came free with the E39 and E60 M5s. It doesn't seem to me to be worth the price.

I got the same one, I think it's $2,500 per day, which is pretty steep!

Got the same, but pretty steep for a single day. Generally these events have a 20% discount if you are either a BMW CCA member, or have the BMW CC.

Yeah I got the same email too... and live relatively close so considered it...

UNTIL I SAW THE PRICE!

$2500 is a good deposit on the VIR school which is like 2-3 days if I'm not mistaken


$2500 for one day is just outrageous. That Spain thing was a better value!
