New Hampshire Motor Speedway

About this event

Take your instructor skills to the next level at our high performance instructor training school held at the driver training facility (also known as "Parking Lot I")  at  New Hampshire Motor Speedway!



Even if you have advanced performance driving skills, it can be an entirely different matter to know how to best communicate that knowledge to others.  This event will help sharpen your instructor skills and is suitable for instructors at all levels.  The curriculum will include

- Review of vehicle dynamics and car control skills
- Training techniques and instructor effectiveness
- Recognizing common driver errors
- How the driver’s mind works
- Why certain instruction techniques can be ineffective
- Improving mental performance at the track

Please review the latest Driving School Curriculum before attending this school. A Pre-Event Safety Report is recommended. You can obtain all our forms here.
This event by invitation only.  Must be an instructor or an instructor candidate with the White Mountain Chapter. 


Are you are an instructor or instructor candidate with another car club?   Would you just like to learn more about what it might be like to be an instructor someday?   Please contact   Gordon Geick  for an invitation or with other questions about the school.
