The White Mountain and Boston chapters of the BMW CCA, sponsored by Schneller Performance, present the Fall Foliage Spectacular at Club Motorsports in Tamworth, NH on Friday and Saturday, October 23-24, 2026. Club Motorsports is a private, 15-turn, 2.5-mile road course with significant elevation changes and a 92db at 50' sound limitation. The High Performance Driving School accommodates all driver levels, from Novice to Intermediate Advanced and Independent Study Group (ISG), and is open to all car makes. This two-day high performance driver school aims to improve driving skills and foster a unified relationship between driver and machine. Drivers will learn to expand their capabilities and practice safe driving habits in a controlled environment under the supervision of experienced instructors. All participants will be organized into run groups based on experience, skill, and vehicle type. Beginners will focus on driving style, while more experienced drivers will work on consistency and new skills like trail braking and threshold braking. Every student will have an instructor in the passenger seat. The most experienced drivers may be "signed off" for solo driving after demonstrating proficiency to their instructor and the Chief Instructor. The Independent Study Group (ISG) is available for advanced students seeking to extend their skills in a fast-paced coaching environment. ISG students work with an assigned coach to develop and execute a personalized curriculum. On-track sessions are supplemented by classroom discussions covering driving lines, corner approaches, speeds, and data analysis. Specialized exercises are offered to improve situational awareness, close-quarters driving comfort, and passing techniques. All attendees are required to participate in classroom sessions tailored to their group experience. This event is a driving school, not a race; passing at the apex is not allowed, and safety is the top priority. Driver conduct will be monitored, and infractions may result in dismissal. Registration for the two-day event (Friday and Saturday) is $700 for student drivers, $750 for ISG participants, and $100 for instructors. Canadian BMW Club Members can register at these rates. Due to limited slots, a wait-list will be created, and applications will be admitted on a first-come, first-served basis. On Saturday, parade laps will be held during the lunch break for anyone wishing to drive their car on the cold track at low speeds without helmets. Participants must be at the track by 11 AM, and vehicles must be registered or approved by event staff. Hot lap rides with instructors will also be offered on Saturday during designated sessions, requiring helmets. Participants for hot laps should be at the track by 9 AM.

HPDE insurance is recommended and can be obtained through Lockton or other providers like OnTrack Insurance.
