Apparently the rationale is that they don't want any pics or videos published that might make this look like a competition - ie: a race or lapping.
These BMW Club events are a registered "school" and they issue tax receipts and everything (I'll be getting a tax break of about $200) ... and they take measures to ensure that nothing threatens their status ... and so they want control over what pics are taken and/or published.
But even though I didn't take pics I should be able to show you some once the "official" photos are published on the club's website - apparently there was two official photographers present; the club president and a journalist doing a story on the event.
BTW - same thing with any kind of timing or g-force type device - strictly verbotten.
