2022-04-09 10:00 - 14:00 | Palmer Motorsport Park, 58 W Ware Rd, Palmer, MA 01069, MA, 01069, United States
New Venue with support of HMS Motorsport and Palmer Motorsports Park – APRIL 9th, 2022 (9:30am to 1pm)
If you’ve ever wondered what its like to take your car out for a track day, or what it takes to compete in an Autocross, we have the perfect opportunity to discover how the Boston Chapter of the BMW CCA hosts our events and how easy it is for you to get started.
You are invited to join us at Palmer Motorsports Park on April 9th for our annual ground school. Track day Driver Education and Autocross programs are some of our most popular in the BMW CCA and this event will use an interactive classroom session with the optional opportunity to participate in parade laps to give an overview of what you can expect on track. Our long time sponsor HMS Motorsport will be on site to talk through safety equipment and Helmets in particular. HMS is headquartered in North Carolina but also has a location right here in Danvers MA. Check out their website for more information on their extensive involvement in all forms of motorsport and for directions to their store at www.hmsmotorsport.com.
Our plan is to provide an overview of our driving events program with particular focus on Track Day, Driver Education and Autocross. We’ll go through where events are held, fundamentals of driver technique and how we coach them. We’ll walk through how to get ready for an event, what your first event looks like and especially how addictively fun these events can be.
Pre-event registration is highly recommended with online registration at $35 per person and on site, day of event registration at $50 per person. The day will start with a continental breakfast at 9:30am with the presentation session getting underway at 10am sharp. We should end the classroom session around noon and then HMS will provide a pizza lunch during which you can talk with the event organizers and instructors. The HMS team will have some of their safety equipment inventory on hand, especially if you want to try on a helmet, something very difficult to do on-line. Towards the end of the lunch period you will have the option to participate in some parade laps around the Palmer Motorsports race track. You are not required to participate in parade laps to attend the ground school but these will give you a flavour for what you can expect at a DE event. Guests (18+) may be registered for $20 per person.
Parade Laps? Drivers (and their passengers 18 years and older) will drive several laps of the race track at reduced speed, behind a pace car. No helmets are required. These parade laps will allow you the time to see the race track in it’s entirety while getting a feel for what a full on track day experience would be like.
Who should attend?
Our event is open to driving enthusiasts interested in becoming a better driver and learning about our 2022 Driving Events Season. This event is open to members of the BMW CCA as well as non members who can register to join the club at this MEMBERSHIP link or at the venue on the day of the event. Annual BMW CCA Membership is only $48.
Specifically drivers and guests will need a valid drivers license and be 18 years of age or older.
COVID Guidelines – Our current policy is that all attendees and guests present proof of vaccination at registration. However as this situation evolves through the course of the year we will review this policy to determine whether a negative covid test for unvaccinated attendees may be sufficient.

Great choices are favorite ethnic dishes. This makes for a table of wonderful selections at the gathering. We also ask that dishes be labeled if they contain nuts, gluten, etc.
