Learn to drive your car on a real racetrack with the NEQ Club.
We know what it’s like to drive on a race-track for the first time so we customize our student experience to make it an enjoyable as possible. We love welcoming first-timers to every event - you will not be alone.
You'll have a beginner classroom teacher and a personal in-car instructor and they are both ready to make you comfortable and give you the tools and confidence to enjoy driving your car on the race-track.
We welcome all makes of cars. You don’t have to drive an Audi.
Choose one of our events, or find out about our driving schools here. And feel free to contact us with any questions. We want to help you have an experience to remember!
“It took me 15 years from joining the Audi Club to attending one of the NEQ track events. It was love at first lap. The organizers, instructors, and veteran club members all made me feel comfortable and provided a memorable experience. Most importantly it’s a safe learning experience that lead me to attend a dozen NEQ HPDE events since my first time.”
~ Ben Wilcox, Syracuse, NY.
"What an experience! It was something that I always wanted to do and NEQ didn’t disappoint. The instructional classes along with the track time was perfect. Will definitely be going back."
~ Paul J. Pimpinella, New Hartford, NY
The members at NEQ are very welcoming to first timers, and make you feel accepted no matter what car you drive.I was nervous when I brought my family Audi A6 car to the track, but had a blast. I’ve since gone back many times the past three years, and upgraded to my childhood dream car as well. Who says you have to grow up?
~ Jeffrey Scott, Trumbull, CT

With its 15 turns over 2.3 miles and more than 190 feet of elevation change, Palmer challenged our drivers and kept the adrenaline pumping! This event delivered everything HPDE is about!
NEQ welcomed 10 first-time drivers in the green group who got to taste the addicting hobby of high speed track driving! We had a very successful event with a total of 90 enthusiastic participants!
Mother Nature made sure our drivers stayed on their toes! Drivers got to experience both dry and wet conditions as Friday was exceptionally beautiful, and rain moved in by the afternoon sessions on Saturday!
There was a packed house on Friday evening for pub night at Rapscallion’s. Club members talked about their cars, shared track stories, and enjoyed micro brews and excellent food! Having a strong community within NEQ is what keeps us going as an amazing club!
NEQ gave special recognition and an award to Jeff Bennett for his commitment and dedication to the IC Program. Thank you Jeff Bennett for your dedication to shaping the next generation of instructors!
We owe a huge thank you to our amazing volunteers, instructors, and especially our event co-masters, Gabe Ash and Elise Becker!
Thank you to everyone who participated and made this event truly memorable and successful!
Up Next:
