About this event

NEQ 2014 Lime Rock Park Driver School and Safety Seminar

Please note the event is presently heavily waitlisted.

The cost for this event is $595 for 2014.

The Northeast Chapter of the Audi Club NA (NEQ) is holding its annual event at Lime Rock Park in the beautiful Northwest corner of Connecticut on May 16-17, 2014. Again this year we will be sharing track time with the Lime Rock Club. To insure that all participants get the same track time as at previous LRP events, we are limiting the number of students in each run group. This will allow us to have four full track sessions on each day for every run group. Please join us at LRP for two full days of fun and learning on one of New England's most beautiful road courses! The fee for this event is $595.00. LRP costs are higher than other events due to the cost fo the track and the limited number of students we can allow (only 48).

Cancellation Policy (revised 5/24/11): No credits will be given. All cancellations will be processed as a refund minus a cancellation fee as follows:

- $50 Penalty up to 21 days before the event

- $100 from 20 days to 7 days before the event

- No refund within 6 days of the event

Due to the nature of this event, two novice or inexpereinced students will not be allowed to share a car. Contact the event master for further details.

The NEQ is a great driver's school that focuses on safety and training and is a great place to start to learn high performance driving.

Who we are and what we do

The Northeast Chapter of the Audi Club of North America, or "NEQ" for short, is a non-profit organization which was founded for the purpose of driver education and safety training. To that end, the club runs approximately 6 events at motorsport facilities around the Northeast, including Lime Rock Park, New Jersey Motorsports, Watkins Glen International, and Mont Tremblant. Our events teach safe driving techniques and both low and high speed vehicle handling. In addition, the club usually runs Winter Driving Schools, social events, including Fun Runs, Social in NYC and other social gatherings.

When you join the Audi Club of North America, if you reside in the NEQ chapter area.you are automatically put on our mailing list, which means you should receive an election ballot towards the end of the year.

Tech pre-Inspection

Well in advance of any on-track driving event, you'll need to get your car pre-inspected by a competent mechanic, who will have to provide a completed and signed copy of the Safety Inspection Checklist form (first page only) for you to bring with you to registration. Please get your car inspected at least two weeks before the event to avoid disappointment if the inspection uncovers repairs that must be completed before the car will pass.

The Northeast Region Quattro Club recognizes several Audi-VW tuners and service centers. They are NEQ supporters with years of experience and scores of satisfied customers. As a benefit for NEQ members they will provide free tech pre-inspection for applicants of our schools. Bring your Safety Inspection Checklist form. After inspection they will sign your form to be sure you are eligible for our event. Naturally there will be a charge for any parts or labor that are additionally required to prepare your vehicle. Two of these sites are APR distributors. They are all participants of our events with much experience in regard to car preparation and advice for upgrades. You will be happy with their services without the worry of dealing with a Audi-VW dealership or corner repair shop. Be sure to call for appointments well in advance of an event.

A helmet with a SNELL SA10 or SA05 rating are the only helmets that may be used.

No more M (motorcycle) helmets will be allowed.
