No ropes. No “please stand back.” Just you, up close with some of the greatest race cars ever built. 🏁

The best angles. The little details. The kind of access that makes you stop and stare for far longer than you planned.

That’s what makes Race Retro special.

Tickets for the NEC Classic Motor Show are now on sale. 🏁

The biggest gathering of classic cars in the UK. Rare motorsport gems, legendary racers, and the icons every enthusiast stops to look at for “just 30 seconds” before losing half an hour.

You won’t see it all. Nobody ever does. BUT it’s worth a try…

Ah yes. The Porsche 911 Carrera RSR 2.8 - and yes, this was sitting right here at Race Retro.

A 911 that turned up to 24 Hours of Le Mans, took on the prototypes… and casually finished 4th overall.

About 300 horsepower, barely 900kg, huge arches, that ducktail, and of course the Martini stripes, which, let’s be honest, make everything look faster standing still.

And the best part? It’s not just for show. This one still goes racing, exactly as it should.

Some cars are important.
This one’s properly special. 🏁

Walking up to the Live Rally Stage… 🏁

Engines cracking in the distance. That unmistakable smell of fuel in the air.

To your right, the service area and some of the best cars in the sport getting their final tweaks before going flat-out.

It’s not subtle. It’s not quiet. It’s exactly how it should be.

Hard to believe it’s been over 6 weeks since that incredible weekend. 🏁

The moment the motorsport season kicked into life, packed halls, engines firing, and the community back together where it belongs.

Still thinking about it? So are we.

VIP Parking Car of the Show 👑🏁

This Lancia Stratos HF Group 4 in iconic Alitalia livery stopped us in our tracks, Ferrari Dino V6, full rally trim, and that sound as it drove away? Unreal.

Huge thanks to its owner for letting us admire it up close.

Pole Parking has become the ultimate spot to show off your wheels. Who will claim the crown next year?

Debut Car of the Show 🏁

Liam Doran's Big Twin Mini Truck.

It’s fair to say none of us had seen anything quite like that on a rally stage before. Twin engines, absolute madness on the track, and a sound that carried all the way to our indoor Hall of Fame.

One very cool bit of kit.

Our 2026 Car of the Show 🏁

1985 Lancia LC2 Group C – Chassis 0007. The final works LC2 built by Lancia Martini Racing.

Pole positions at Monza and Silverstone. Fastest lap at Brands Hatch. Ferrari twin-turbo V8 power at its peak, 1986 specification.

Driven by the likes of Baldi, Wollek and Nannini, and more recently by five-time Le Mans winner Emanuele Pirro at Goodwood.

A true Group C icon.

Our thanks to the owner and Girardo & Co for loaning this incredible car.
