Here's more about the Hagerty Driving Experience going on at this event:

Greetings Classic Car Owners,

The Hagerty Driving Experience is a program launched by Hagerty in 2011 to teach young drivers to operate manual transmission vehicles and to ignite a passion for classics. Since that time, Hagerty has hosted 24 events throughout the U.S. and Canada teaching more than 900 young drivers the skill of operating a manual transmission vehicle and introducing them to the joy and excitement of the classic car hobby. Our milestone 25th Hagerty Driving Experience will be hosted in conjunction with the Arizona Concours d'Elegance 'NextGen Auto Fest' on Saturday, January 14th.

We couldn't have done it without friends like you! We are looking for enthusiastic car owners interested in helping teach young drivers the skill of driving a manual using cool, classic cars.

If you have a manual transmission classic and would like to join us to help fuel the future of the classic car community, please contact Rachel Flynn at rflynn@hagerty.com or 231.313.1447.

Program basics:

Conducted on a closed driving course with approximately 40 students
Focuses on clutch operation and teaching the unique ins-and-outs of classic cars
Program is free of charge
Two sessions: 9 a.m. – Noon and 1 – 4 p.m.

Additionally, for students interested in participating, registration is now open at www.Hagerty.com/DrivingExperience. Open to driver's ages 15 to 25 with a valid permit or driver's license. Sign up soon as space is limited and pre-registration is required.

This is an opportunity you won't want to miss!

Happy Motoring!
