About this event
Welcome to the Audi Club's annual High Performance Driver's Clinic (HPDC)!
The event is focused on beginners/novice student participants who are starting to get engaged in track events or those who want to improve their driving skills for the daily commute.
This annual PCC-ACNA clinic is an instructional event tailored to the needs of members with no previous driving experience beyond the "normal" daily commute and driver's ed classes. The clinic provides a safe controlled environment to learn and practice advanced defensive driving techniques and car control through a combination of classroom and on-track exercises.
For anyone who wishes to enhance their driving knowledge and enjoy a safer road experience through improved skills, confidence and understanding, this event is designed for that purpose. It provides the ideal start for those who may want to progress and participate in our two-day Drivers' Education (DE) events. ABSOLUTELY NO PRIOR EXPERIENCE REQUIRED and there will be plenty of patient instructors to help guide you through the day.
Over the past fifteen plus years, we have developed an outstanding program that puts beginners and novices at ease and offers valuable instruction even for those who have recently started doing Drivers' Education events. The morning is classroom and car-control exercises including a wet skidpad, braking, and slalom. The afternoon finishes off the event by applying what was learned in the morning with on-track driving.
Event requirements
You must be 18 years old to participate in this event. Spots are limited.
NOTE: Model years of some SUV/CUVs such as the Audi Q3 and Q5 (unfortunately not the Q7) and others are now allowed. Convertibles are permitted IF approved, aftermarket safety equipment is installed. Check for models and rules in the Driver School Event Rules.
No special tires or brakes or other car modifications are required. Learn more about your car just as it sits! Simply make sure the existing tires and brakes and other mechanical equipment are in good condition. You should have had your brake fluid replaced in the last 2 years.
The event does not require a tech inspection but we will perform a tech inspection on site to make sure your car is in safe condition. Be sure to wear long pants, a long-sleeve shirt and closed toe shoes. We will provide helmets when they're needed.
