The verdict

Autobahn Country Club sits about an hour southwest of downtown Chicago and runs North and South courses that can be joined into a 3.56-mile full circuit or operated simultaneously — which is the real membership benefit, because it doubles available track time on busy days. Member garages, a clubhouse and an active club racing scene round it out.

Best forChicago-area owners who want a real road course within an easy drive.
