...and 911s, Boxters, and Vipers to learn to drive fast at Laguna Seca. Still pricey, but looks fun.

IIRC, they used to have E30 M3s way, way back at the Skip Barber Schools.

Dem were de days! I took the two (or was three) day course at Lime Rock. The E 30 cars, especially the ///Ms are my favorites. At that time Skip had a contract with BMW whereby BMW NA supplied all the cars. Later BMW NA pulled the plug and Skip went with Dodge. I wonder how the present deal is structured with three marques?

I had the pleasure of working with Skip and several of his people on a series of celebrity races and safety promotions. At the time he was using BMW sedans and Saab powered race cars in his schools and we used Dodges for the celebrity stuff.
