Hi, guys.

We just got word from Bill Cobb of BMW Team PTG regarding the 6 hours race at Tremblant on the weekend of May 20th. They are inviting BMW Club of Quebec members to a private paddock tour! You get to check out the 420 hp monster E46 M3's up close and personal. Plus, you'll have a chance to meet the team and drivers.

This is a terrific opportunity to see some ferocious racecars on one of the most beautiful and challenging circuits in the world. This is the ONLY time the PTG team will be up in Canada this season...so don't miss the chance to see them in action.

Here are the details: http://www.bmwquebec.ca/bmw/home/ptg_invite

Hope to see you there!

I can't believe that I'll have to miss the race weekend! I'm stuck in NJ until May 26th. I'm dying to go. I hope we have a good BMW QC turnout: I'll see if Benoit can take some pics for the Club.

I would love to be there but the 20-22 May weekend is really busy for me
I still don't know what I will do

21st I have to help someone who is moving, this will take the day for sure

The 20th I have a Toyota BBQ/Race Meeting at Sanair

The 20th I finish at 4 pm, the time I'll take to get there I don't know if it's worth going.. Is it possible to have a special pass to have this kind of view:

Maybe Jean-Sebastien can get there, I'll ask him

Otherwise I will have to make a tough choice bmw ptg or toyota :(

Hey Emre. As guest of the PTG crew, does it mean we are on their guest list as that we skip Le Circuit's entry fee?

Cruises come and go. This is a rare opportunity!

OK, guys. Her'e the reply from Bill:


It seems there may be a bit of confusion. To clear it up - we are offering a tour to club members who will be at the track. We cannot pay for their tickets. I believe Friday's ticket price is $20. I've only heard from two people so far. We'd love to see more.BTW, I think this is very reasonable. BMW Team PTG is already being mighty generous with their offer. It's a little much to expect them to pick up the tab!

How do we access the paddock? I think the tickets only allow access to other areas of the track.

I checked with the track. Paddock access will be allowed between all sessions and is included in the ticket price.

BillIf you have any other questions, just go ahead and post them here. It looks like Bill is following this thread.
