Greg's virtual M5 School + bmwm5.com movies

Are now hosted here at BMWM5.com.

Virtual M5 Driving School

This site includes a full set of videos designed to help M5 owners learn to launch and shift without ruining the clutch. It also includes some advanced techniques like rev-matched single- and double-clutch downshifts, and heel-and-toe braking.

But wait - there's more! Scroll down to the "Bonus Videos" for some other fun stuff. If you haven't seen BMW's "Rocket Car" ad for the M5, you are missing a treat. It is here.

Other fun bmwm5.com movies here:

ftp://www.bmwm5.com/bmwm5.com/movies/


Note: This was originally posted by Gustav but edited by Greg to provide a better URL for the main page.

Beautiful! Thanks.

Edit: the link to movie about single clutch downshift (sgl_clutch_downshift.mpg) is wrong. There should be no quotation marks in the file name.

I saw this web site sometime last year before i got my car, i learned a lot about the car before i even drove it.


Four thumbs up for this web site, the double cluthing part is great.
