Also, did anyone who went to Monticello go check out the collector car storage area?

yep the anyone know anything about M Track Days will turn into anyone get their pin for a few months, then after we get them. Anyone hear about M Track Days 2020? lol

I will say, I need to look back into the rumors people were posting before. I swore one mentioned new tracks, but I think they were most if not all the same.

I was the one who heard new tracks. There was informal Q&A at the end of the Monticello session in '18 while we waited for instructors to queue for hot laps...I asked about 2019 and they mentioned other tracks.

I think the only new one for 2019 was the Chicago option, right?

I was hoping for VIR where they occasionally do an advanced 2 day M school.

I personally always have a great time and with the new M3 coming out as long as they have one in the fleet I would return to Monticello, but the drive kills me.

Four hours each way driven the morning before and right after.

Same here. I live in DC so it's the best option but it takes me almost 5 to go straight there. I've been staying at a nice place in Milford PA for the last two years to break it up.

Back and forth same day is too brutal.

I would like to have it at like NJMP or Summit Point.

2016 came in the same type of box as 2017 but it was just an M logo. About an inch long.

Starting to think the 2019 pin won't happen...bummer.

Been over a month and a half since the last event.

Wonder if this years hat (that says 2019 M Track Days) checked the box for BMW this year.

idk I think last year we were waiting around, thinking it was never coming then it did

also if I remember M Track Days started months later than it did in 2019 than 2018.

Fingers crossed.

In 2017, I attended COTA on July 26 and had the pin in hand on Aug 27. About a month and, IIRC, events went on until September or later.

In '18, I went to Monticello on Aug 16 and the pin showed up Oct 11. So 2 months but, again, I think there were Thermal days as late as November.

(I've got the dates the packages arrived because I posted here).
