Good tracks in central Florida?

JBE90335 · 06-24-2012, 04:00 PM

Hey guys just picked up a 335i a week ago. I live and work in traffic filled downtown orlando and haven't had the chance to open her up yet. Are there any good places around here to take her? I know there are some drag strips around but was looking for more of a road course.

Good? Nonexistent.

M3_Dylan · 06-24-2012, 05:43 PM

I searched and came up with the same conclusion

Transport3r · 06-24-2012, 06:00 PM

Sebring? it's kind of a big deal :P

Closest thing would be Suncoast BMWCCA chapter AutoX at Brooksville Airport or Porsche clubs events at Zephyrhills airport.

Starts again in September.

Sebring.

Roebling Road In Savanah, GA only 3.5 hrs away and if you have never been on a track before, this is a very forgiving track for learning.

Pm me. I can give you a nice route to take up here one some long country roads. I do it all the time and the scenery is nice and the roads are great

I have ran a couple times at CFRC. they set up autocross events every other week. Look for them on Face book the they have a page called CFRC Autocross.

Hunalejandro · 08-21-2012, 07:38 PM

Dude, Orlando traffic and the 40-55mph is ridiculous. I suppose by "good" you mean any places period to let her loose. Come over to Daytona we auto x at Daytona International Speedway all the time. There is a closed runway that we use at the Deland Airport as well and heard lots of good things about Sebring.

Kid Red · 08-22-2012, 10:05 PM

I've wondered this question as well. Good stuff mentioned, subscribed!

CFRC is good but if your looking for drag, they're permanently shut down

BMVeh · 08-23-2012, 09:05 AM

Bradenton?? might be a little far

Kid Red · 08-23-2012, 02:03 PM

As a noobie to tracks, I just want to learn how to drive with proper technique and discover what driving my first bimmer and my first RWD car can really be like. I'm not intersted in drag, I'm interested in lots of curves.

954Stealth · 08-23-2012, 02:06 PM

Sebring! (It's been mentioned already I know)

So how about an invite or more info on auto x @ Daytona speedway?

Link to group or more info would be helpful

Hunalejandro · 08-23-2012, 11:17 PM

Sure. Below is the calendar for the entire year. These events are good for the inexperienced as well as the experienced, with lots of curves and straights.
