From the fast track to luxury lane, this is one auto party with something for everyone.

The Lowcountry is known for its big festivals, like Savannah’s St. Patrick’s Day celebration, but a Hilton Head event has been slowly and quietly growing into the largest of its kind on the East Coast. The Hilton Head Island Concours d’Elegance & Motoring Festival is a three-day event celebrating everything in the car world. “Unlike other races and shows, this one is unique because of its location in Savannah and Hilton Head Island,” says Bob Craig, former racer and now manager of the Savannah/Hilton Head Speed Classic. “That means whether you are a race fan, a vintage car enthusiast or someone who might only want to attend an event or two, all that Savannah and Hilton Head have to offer is also right at your fingertips as part of the whole package.”

The Speed Classic, a two-day track event that is held on the newly opened Hutchinson Island racetrack, includes heart-stopping races by professional drivers in close to 10 classes, including Formula 1, Formula 5000 and even vintage cars. It also gives participants a chance to ride the course with a driver or drive their own car in a parade lap. The Hutchinson Island racetrack is a source of hometown pride and nostalgia for race entrant and founding president of the Oglethorpe Driving Club, Kevin Iocovozzi. “It’s a very personal race for me, along with others,” reflects Iocovozzi. “I call it the ‘home race.’ Knowing the history behind the Hutchinson Island track and to have seen the many volunteers of this festival come together and have such a successful impact for its reopening makes this a very special race for me and everyone involved.”
