ACNA NEQ – HPDE – Club Motorsports

July 15, 2024 - July 16, 2024
Two days ago, we sent out an email about our Club Motorsports Driving School this July 15 & 16. (details for that event are lower in this email) but we didn’t properly emphasize what a great spot for travel this area of New Hampshire is.
At this event, you can experience the perfect blend of adrenaline and relaxation with a unique getaway that combines the thrill of a two-day track driving school with the serene beauty of New Hampshire’s Lakes Region. This exceptional pairing offers the best of both worlds: the excitement of motorsports and the tranquility of one of New England’s most beloved vacation destinations.
Nestled in the heart of New Hampshire’s Lakes Region, Meredith, Tamworth, and the northern Winnipesaukee area offer a picturesque and enchanting destination for travelers seeking a perfect blend of natural beauty, outdoor recreation, and small-town charm. This idyllic region, centered around the crystal-clear waters of Lake Winnipesaukee, provides visitors with a serene escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. With its stunning lake views, lush forests, and rolling hills, the area serves as a year-round playground for outdoor enthusiasts and nature lovers alike. Whether you’re looking to relax on the beach, explore hiking trails, enjoy water sports, or experience the region’s rich cultural heritage, Meredith and its surrounding communities offer a diverse array of activities and attractions that make it an ideal vacation spot for families, couples, and solo travelers
Below we included some helpful links. 🙂

What is a High Performance Driver Education (HPDE) School? 
Learn to drive your car on a real racetrack. Our high performance driving schools are an opportunity to learn and develop your driving skills, explore your capabilities as a driver and those of your car in a safe environment. Your classroom teacher and your personal instructor are ready to give you the tools and confidence to explore the performance of your own car.
You are on a racetrack but it is not racing. Passing in corners is not allowed, and drivers are carefully coached to develop skills needed to maintain safety and control and you are grouped with other drivers with similar driving experience. Classroom instruction is also included to help you learn more about performance driving and vehicle dynamics.

As soon as we go live – we’ll let you know!
NEQ Club.
