Canaan Motor Club is a motorsports oasis in the middle of the New Hampshire woodlands, on the little town of Canaan, an hour and a half north of Manchester, New Hampshire. This 1.3-mile (2.09-km) race track is compatible with both the clockwise and the counterclockwise configurations, has 11 turns in total, and features decent elevation changes with several moderately-banked corners along the way. Canaan motor club offers the possibility of splitting the track into separate circuits for running two events simultaneously, as is the case for karting or timed competitions like autocross. The climate in Canaan is cold and temperate, and it rains consistently throughout the year, even in the driest season, so be prepared to run on a wet surface.
The track layout consists of several easy-flowing turns, intermingled with sharp-angled turns like one, two, nine, or ten. There are five straight segments scattered around the track, and racers experience alternating turns making their tires screech and keeping their hands in the stick. The average speed in the circuit is about 70 mph (112 km/h) for both orientations, and even seasoned professionals racing in this track will be faced with a demanding yet secure challenge.
The clockwise orientation of the racetrack at Canaan Motor Club has an average speed of 70 mph (112 km/h) and an average lap time of 1:06.8. Races start at the middle of the front straightaway and face a tight corner combination right at the beginning, with a 90-degree turn number one and even sharper to take number two. The rest of the track for this configuration consists of fast-paced sweepers until racers reach a difficult to maneuver combination of turns nine and ten, recovering speed after exiting ten and developing high speed through the final turn 11.
