Tee & Torque: Car and Golf Events for UK Driving Enthusiasts | New Roads
There are few better feelings than a good drive. Not just the kind that starts with a full tank and a stretch of road ahead, but the other kind too: the clean strike, the satisfying flight, the small moment of silence as a golf ball climbs into the sky exactly as intended.
Across the UK, a new kind of motoring event is beginning to take shape: one that blends great cars, considered driving routes, premium golf days and proper hospitality. For those searching for car and golf events in the UK, Tee & Torque is part of a growing movement that treats the journey, the course and the community as one complete experience.
For many of us, cars and golf sit in the same emotional territory. They reward patience, feel and precision. They encourage ritual. They give us a reason to get out early, to meet good people, to head somewhere beautiful and to make a day of it. Tee & Torque understands that connection and saw an opportunity.
A community and events business created to unite car and golf enthusiasts, Tee & Torque brings together two passions that have always felt quietly compatible. The coffee and conversation in the car park. The convoy across country lanes. The first tee nerves. The post-round drink. The lingering glance back at the cars before heading home. It is all part of the same experience.
Founded by Ollie and Spencer, Brighton-born childhood family friends with a shared love of cars and golf, Tee & Torque has grown from a simple but compelling idea: what happens when you bring memorable driving experiences and premium golf days into one welcoming community? Inspired by Ollie’s move into modern classic car ownership, and shaped by years of experience organising golf events, Tee & Torque was created to give like-minded enthusiasts something that feels both polished and personal. At the centre of it all is a genuine love for four wheels, fairways and the kind of days that are made better by good roads, good courses and good company.
That is where New Roads comes in.
Every Tee & Torque drive is planned by Ollie using New Roads, a road trip planning app built for people who care about how a route feels, not just where it ends. Instead of sending drivers down the quickest or most obvious road, New Roads helps shape routes around the car, the occasion and the kind of drive people actually want – from flowing B-roads to scenic approaches that turn the journey to a golf course into part of the event itself.
Steve, one of our own, has already experienced that blend first-hand. A self-confessed fair-weather golfer, he has attended several Tee & Torque events, including Cowdray and Burhill Golf Club, and came away with exactly the impression he hoped he would: great events, a great community and a properly friendly crowd.
That last point matters. Because this is not a closed circle for the already initiated. Tee & Torque may attract some very special cars, from vintage classics to modern supercars, but the atmosphere is not about status or showing off. It is about common ground. The person with the modern performance car, the classic owner, the golfer looking for a more social round, the enthusiast who enjoys a good convoy as much as a good scorecard – they all have a place here.
At its best, Tee & Torque feels like a modern clubhouse for people who love both kinds of driver.
The format is refreshing. Events can include a car meet, a carefully planned convoy drive and a round of golf at some of the UK’s top courses. Some are single-day experiences. Others go further, adding luxury accommodation, private dining, track time, motorsport hospitality and the sort of details that turn a day out into something much more memorable.
Tee & Torque Summer Special at Goodwood
The upcoming Tee & Torque Summer Special at Goodwood is a perfect example. Taking place on 10–11 August 2026, the event is positioned as a two-day experience for car and golf enthusiasts, with entries closing on 1 July 2026. The first day includes breakfast rolls and hot drinks before a midday tee off on the Goodwood Downs course, with buggies included, followed by a private dining experience and an overnight stay at The Goodwood Hotel.
For those who want to take things up another gear, day two adds a convoy drive to Goodwood Motor Circuit, followed by an exclusive DTO Performance Experience Track Day. The event page lists one-to-one tuition and the opportunity to drive cars including the Porsche 718 GT4, Mercedes-AMG GT R and Alpine A110R across three 15-minute track sessions.
It is the kind of event that makes immediate sense to anyone who sees cars and golf as more than hobbies. Both demand feel. Both bring people together. Both are improved by beautiful surroundings, good company and a touch of healthy competition. And both, when done properly, leave you replaying the best moments long after the day is done.
There is also a networking element, but not the awkward, name-badge kind. Tee & Torque creates the conditions for relationships to form naturally. Conversations start over a car, continue over a round and often carry on over dinner. That is the strength of a shared-interest community: people arrive with something in common before a word has been spoken.
It is also a reminder that driving culture does not have to live only in lay-bys, paddocks and petrol stations. It can sit comfortably alongside hospitality, sport, design, conversation and travel. It can be refined without becoming sterile. Premium without becoming distant. Enthusiast-led without becoming exclusive.
For any driver who also loves the other driver, Tee & Torque is well worth a closer look. Whether you are a committed golfer, a weekend player, a fair-weather optimist like Steve, or simply someone who enjoys good cars, good roads and good company, this is a community built around the pleasure of doing things properly.
And for New Roads subscribers, there is an added reason to get involved: you can receive 10% off Tee & Torque membership.
Because some passions are better when they meet. Cars and golf. Roads and fairways. Torque and tee shots. Two drivers, one community.
Planning your own drive to a golf day, car meet or weekend escape? New Roads helps drivers create hyper-personalised routes built around their car, their mood and their destination – whether that is a morning run to the coast, a route to one of the UK’s best golf courses, or a longer road trip with hotels, food and memorable stops along the way.
