So you think you're a hot driver do you? Then try your hand at the wheel of a new BMW M3 in the German brand's all-new Level 3: BMW Fascination Driver Training. Announced yesterday, this two day advanced driver skills course that adds to the knowledge gained from the marque's Level 1 and Level 2 single day sessions.
When and where? Test your mettle this summer at the highly acclaimed and recently renovated Circuit Mont-Tremblant, Quebec. The course will cover track exercises, inter-city speed ideal-line cornering and lane changes in addition to a range of specialty skills.
"We are very pleased to bring the third level, BMW Fascination Driver Training, to Canada, thereby rounding out BMW's initiative and commitment to promote active safety on Canadian roads," commented Hendrik von Kuenheim, President and CEO, BMW Group Canada. "The third level of the program teaches a broader range of specialty skills in an exciting environment which are still applicable to everyday driving situations."

Participants will learn how to have better high speed control over their vehicle through greater individualized attention. The Level 3 course allows a maximum of only twelve students.
And what can you expect? Each day a brief 45-60 minute theory session ends with follow-the-leader lapping exercises. The day continues with specific skills driver training and more one on one attention. At the end of day two, BMW's professional driving instructors will take participants for a lap of the circuit, a thrilling, albeit sometimes humbling conclusion to the experience.
Like all worthwhile experiences there's a cost. The Level Three course is $2975.00 (accommodation extra). Course dates include June 23-24, June 25-26, August 26-27 and August 28-29, 2003.
