The premier Boston Chapter/Quebec Chapter driving school at Mt. Tremblant will be held Friday through Sunday, August 6th, 7th and 8th. We will also be hosting a club race on Saturday and Sunday! The club race combined with the driving school will make for an exciting weekend! This year space is limited for students and racers so sign up early. Friday is an extra school day for intermediate and advanced students, instructors and racers.
This is the perfect opportunity to combine a Driving School with a family vacation. Come early or stay late...you can easily spend a week without getting bored.
The Setting
The setting is the European-style resort village Mont Tremblant. Nestled in the splendor of the Laurentian Mountains, Mont Tremblant is located 90 miles northwest of Montréal. Of course the area features fine restaurants and excellent shopping. It also features over 100 miles of protected trails for biking, skateboarding, and rollerblading. There are two great golf courses, an aquatics center, and a lake with a large beach.
The Track
This is all in addition to the new world class Le Circuit Mont-Tremblant, which is only 10 minutes from the village! Built in 1964 in the shadow of the majestic Mont-Tremblant, the picturesque and twisty 15-corner 2.65-mile track was completely rebuilt and upgraded in 2001. It is two meters wider all around with extensive runoff areas everywhere. Le Circuit Mont-Tremblant has been upgraded to meet FIA vintage Formula racing safety standards. If you loved the track before, you won't believe it now!
Situated in one of the most gorgeous settings in the world for a race track, the layout is a classic, as it combines the natural topography of the site with elevation changes from the start/finish line to corner 8 and back. The track is bordered by Lake Moore and Devil River (La Diable).
The Boston Chapter gratefully appreciates the help of the BMW Club of Quebec for their help with Bimmers Across the Border.
