Description
Welcome to the BMW Performance Classic 2-Mile Run/Walk Website!
We're excited for the upcoming 2026 event with increased capacity.
This is a Greenville Track Club Corporate Shield event.
For the 2026 race, we have significantly increased capacity (max includes participants and spectators), which requires off-site parking at The Ultimate Driving Museum (190 Manatee Court, Greer) with a shuttle to the event site.
We are also offering Paid On-Site Parking as an option. To purchase, sign up for the On-Site Parking Event in addition to the PARTICIPANT Event.
Maps of the parking options, shuttle and venue are located in the link "Performance Classic Maps (Parking & Venue)"
As the event occurs in an area restricted to the public, ALL participants and spectators must register and sign a waiver. Spectators regardless of age are required to register ('SPECTATOR') and sign a waiver at no charge. Spectators will be given a wristband and participants must wear race bibs during the event. Spectator registration does NOT include refreshments.
We have a minimum participant age requirement of 5 years old, in line with RRCA guidelines that children under this age group should only participate in "dash" events. All registered participants should be able to finish the race on their own (not in a stroller, or carried by an adult). Strollers are permitted, however should line up in the back of the field. Dogs are not permitted.
Timing is based on "Gun/Horn Time". A participant's race time starts with the horn and stops when the participant crosses the finish line as captured by the chip on their bib. Strollers and walkers are kindly asked to line up in the back of the field.

The Ultimate Driving Museum
Join The Ultimate Driving Museum in Greer for the newest exhibition: Experience the Legend: BMW M3: 40 Years of Evolution.
The BMW M3 isn’t just a sports car—it’s an automotive legend. Born from BMW’s in-house motorsport division, the M3’s roots are pure racing, beginning with the iconic E30 M3 (1986–1991)—a purebred racer built to satisfy the rules of homologation. The 2026 exhibition celebrates four decades of history, performance, and engineering that have built the M3 into the powerhouse it is today.
