Winter Driving School (January and February)
Description of Winter Driving School – This is our first event of the year, and is a Driver Skill event. If you would like to learn to control your car in slippery conditions, to handle every type of skid, including correcting understeer and oversteer,and to stop more quickly in snowy or icy conditions, then join the North Atlantic Audi Club for one (or both!) schools. It’s a safe, low-speed event on a closed course with expert instruction in a fun atmosphere where there will be ample opportunity to socialize with like-minded enthusiasts.
This school is very much at your own pace, and everyone from novices to advanced drivers will learn a great deal and have a blast. For novices, we focus on recovering from skids, smoothness, vision, and improving consistency through practice. For advanced students who have mastered the basics, we will offer instruction in techniques such as handbrake turns, left foot braking, threshold braking, trailing throttle oversteer and mastering the “Scandinavian flick”. For everyone this is an excellent opportunity to learn car control skills that can make you a safer driver under all conditions and reduce lap times on the track or autocross course.

Covered Bridge Tour (August)
Description of Covered Bridge Tour – Participants will be part of a road tour which will stop at a select number of bridges, including some which will require some walking to see.

Generally 10 or more bridges are visited and the route will travel on highways, side roads, country lanes and even unpaved roads. It is a full day of travel and a stop for lunch will be part of the agenda.
