Registration for Winter Driving Schools is now 
open!  last Winter these events filled up before 
we saw the first snow, so don’t hesitate!!

The North Atlantic Audi Club will host a pair of 
two-day Winter Driving Schools (WDS) on Jan 26-27 
and Feb 23-24, 2008. These two-day schools 
include a brief classroom session covering the 
important fundamentals of winter driving, 
including the importance of accelerating, 
braking, weight transfer, and steering on ice and 
snow. Participants then navigate a closed-course 
at Team O’Neil’s Car Control Center 
(<http://www.team-oneil.com/>http://www.team-oneil.com) 
in Dalton, New Hampshire, specially designed for 
winter driving instruction. Experienced 
instructors ride along as students pilot their 
own vehicles through a proven curriculum that 
includes obstacle courses designed to simulate 
real-world accident avoidance, emergency braking 
and skid-control.  Participants will gain 
invaluable winter driving experience and improve 
their ability to react quickly and confidently to 
real-world driving situations frequently encountered in winter driving.
We are thrilled to have the headquarters for the 
event at the beautiful Mountain View Grand Resort 
& Spa again this year.  This is an amazing resort 
and we have negotiated a great rate for our 
event.  For more information on the Mountain View 
Grand, please see: 
<http://www.mountainviewgrand.com/>http://www.mountainviewgrand.com. 
If you would like to stay at the Mountain View 
Grand Hotel please call them IMMEDIATELY upon 
receiving confirmation of your registration. 
Instructions for getting the NAAC rate will be in 
your confirmation email.  There are a very 
limited number of spaces available on a first 
come, first serve basis and they are likely to 
sell out BEFORE the end of November.

The banquets for WDS will also be held at the 
Mountain View Grand. We are still working on the 
menu but you may be asked to decide on potential 
entrée options when registering (subject to 
change!).  In any case, this is a fun time to 
mingle with your fellow students and 
instructors.  The meal is being provided at a 
rate that is below the cost we have negotiated.

Registration is open and powered by
