Did you take any videos?

No videos unfortunately. I was surprised that BMW did not offer these like Disney after every ride.
I also purchased everyone a BMW Performance School T shirt and hat.
Still my favorite today.
Drifting event- 1 series Bimmers
Shut off all nanny controls
Run on a wetted down circular track.
the event is made up of 2 cars/ drivers starting Opposite of each other on the track.
You race/drift 3 laps and the winner advances. This is an elimination event
As I had a group of 18, so there were nine heats.
Winner moves on.
Race 1. I won my event
Race 2. I won the semi finals- 5 laps
Race 3. I won the quarter finals- 5 laps
Finals- 10 lap event. After 10 laps BMW called the race a tie.
I got another 10 laps and I won when my buddy spun the car on lap 9.
I got 33 laps.
This event is all about driving control, finesse and not speed.
Too slow you lose. Too fast you spin out. No nanny controls to take over.
Fantastic event.
