+1.
I did it last year @LRP, and had fun.
The track time is way too limited (autoX and a (stupid) drag-race are mixed in) to justify the paying (roughly) the same price of a full-day BMW CCA DE.

Frankly - no, it is not.
This is a 95% marketing/sales event, and 5% driver education.
The level of instruction is somewhere between rudimentary and non-existent. It's just an opportunity to thrash someone else's (BMW NA) cars on track, at an autoX course, and accelerating up/down a drag strip.
If you are in a market for an ///M car and want to side-by-side compare them on track at 6/10th driving, or just have fun in someone else's car, this will work out great.
If you actually want to learn how to drive cars on track, or how to autoX better, you will be sorely disappointed.
You will learn 10x for the same $$ at a BMW CCA HPDE!
