Midnight New England is a car group formed in eastern Massachusetts sometime late 2020. While first hosting small meets, within a month the group grew dramatically. Going on to host the event that led to their uprising; Newbury St Chronicles. The group tends to act more of a network rather than a traditional car group. Going on to publicly say, "We are not a car group. We just host car events".

Members
While events are typically open to everyone, membership to midnight is somewhat exclusive. "Real" members are hardly shown but this may be due to the fact other car groups in the area despise the antics of midnight, and for protection against police prosecution.

Events
When it comes to car meets, the group has one simple formula. Full send from the beginning. Being most notable for their takeovers, the group has also shown to be able to tap in car events that require more skill. The group is known to host a variety of events such as drag races, times attacks, time trials, sprint races, and drift trials. These events being more private being "invite only".

Drag Races
Drag races are pretty straight forward. However they have two different types of drag racing. Type 1 being the traditional drag race. They shut down a street or highway, have two people line up, and a few others down the road to determine the winner. Type 2 consist of having a small group of cars all line up at a meeting point then race to point B. Type 2 races are usually 10+ miles long. Sometimes even longer.

Time Trials
Time Trials are usually completed by select vehicles. Each driver is given a specific times to participate. Time Trial events assign the driver a route with a set number of checkpoints and a timer. They have to complete the outlined route within a certain time to win. Each winner is marked and put on a leaderboard to have future participates try and beat their time.

Sprint Races
Sprint races are a form of type 2 drag racing. Just with more checkpoints

Drift Trials
Drift trials consists of 3 different type of drifting events. Type 1:Has contestants complete a route which they have to break traction to earn points. Participants are given a score to beat to win. They are also put on a leaderboard for future participants to compete against. Type 2: Gives the participant a route with checkpoints and a time to complete each while breaking traction. Type 3: Puts two people against each other. When they have to break traction longer than the other person earning them points to win.

Rules
The group has been open about their one and only rule in their events. No endangering civilian life. A quote from the group "Anyone caught purposely endangering civilian life will be banned from all events. These events are for skilled drivers. If you cannot complete them without risking another persons life, then you do not belong here."
