Quattrokhana Valentine's Day Edition! - The ACNA RMC adult & teen winter safety ice driving school is held on the frozen surface of Georgetown Lake. Participants will start their day with a short presentation covering safety, winter driving techniques and schedule. After the presentation, participants will put their cars through exercises on varied snow and ice conditions, allowing participants to practice extreme winter/ice conditions. Not limited to Audis, open to all makes and models!

Testimonial:

I attended the Audi Club ice driving event 2 years ago, and can not recommend it highly enough.  Leading up to the event I was apprehensive about my own driving skill on ice, wrecking my car, or not being able to complete the course(s) I was sure would be assigned.  From almost the moment I 'stepped' on to the ice, all of the nervousness was gone.  This event was well planned, expertly directed, and most important a TON of fun.  The amount of confidence I left with in both my car, and my own winter/ice driving skills was significant.  Did I mention that in amongst all of the great tips/tricks/lessons, that this day was so much fun? Sign up - you won't regret it - it's a great, great day of driving, meeting new people, and learning new, valuable, safer approaches to winter driving - all in a safe, controlled environment that ensures both you and your car get to try out those new skills!     -Kelly H

 

2021 COVID era considerations: As always, this event is contingent on conditions of the quality and thickness of the ice. For 2021, we have the added complexity of COVID-era guidelines and potentially changing restrictions.

We ask that everyone wear a mask when outside of their vehicle, and abide by social distancing protocols. To maintain social distancing, there will not be any in-car instruction or ride-alongs available. We will be offering instructional feedback via two-way FRS radios for those who want it, but you must provide your own radio.
