I attend track days through my BMW club. We get about 4 a year. You have an instructor assigned to you that is a trained instructor for high performance driving. You drive your car so you learn an incredible amount about your car. How it handles under hard braking, proper turn in points, throttle steering, proper exits, hitting apexs, etc. If I were you, I'd join the local BMW club and attend their track days. SoCal is loaded with tracks. I'd say join the local MB club but the MB club around here just takes leisurely drives to the local wineries. I don't think any of them even knows what a track day is. The BMW guys love the track. My local BMW club lets anyone join as long as they have 40 bucks. I have friends with 350z's, Lotus's, Saleens, that have joined the BMW club just so they can have access to our 4 track days plus we have a deal with the Audi and Porsche clubs so we can also attend their track days.
