Hilton Head Island Concours d’Elegance & Motoring Festival

October 27, 2009 by Susanne Talentino

This event is something for car enthusiasts of all kinds. It’s a great opportunity to watch beautiful cars in both Hilton Head, South Carolina and Savannah, Georgia.

The festival kicks off already on Thursday Oct 29th in Savannah with the preparations for the race and there’s also a Happy Hour reception for drivers and fans at Johnson Square 5pm-8pm.

The Savannah/Hilton Head Speed Classic takes place at the newly renovated track at Hutchinson Island on Friday and Saturday.  The Speed Classic offers vintage racing and hot lap rides at racing speeds in the latest and greatest sports car models. So plan to spend a full day.

Then on Sunday it’s time for the Concourse d’Elegance at Coastal Discovery Museum in Hilton Head Island.
150 vintage cars and motorcycles (all Pre 1980) are competing for various prizes and awards. Also at the museum The Motoring Midway: From Memory Lane to the Fast Lane.  This is a two-day  exhibit with  interactive displays featuring both the new and the old,  including bikes of all kinds, new vehicle displays and much more.

Hilton Head concourse d’elegance takes place Oct 29 – 31. For more information visit www.hhiconcourse.com
