Matters of the Moment   

Thoroughly Modern Moments...
Your editor has gone all modern, at least for some of the season. Eight rounds of the NLS GT4 Championship in Germany, plus Britcar and the BRSCC Endurance Series here in the UK. Obviously, he‘ll be attending Le Mans Classic, plus most of Europe‘s top historic meetings. And, somehow, the schedule will also include his hill climbing escapades, still leaving time to run Retro-Speed magazine.

Peter Baker
Editor-in-Chief





Classic Car and Historic Motorsport from Retro-Speed Magazine 
  Daily news and image galleries from the world of classic rallying, historic motor racing, hill climbs, car trials, classic car shows, and major classic car and automobilia auctions, written by and for those passionate about historic motor sport.

Classic Motorsport Retro-Fact  The young Stirling Moss proved himself a significant ‘all-rounder‘ when he finished second overall, driving a Sunbeam Talbot on the 1952 Rally Monte-Carlo. The event was won by Britain‘s Sydney Allard, by a margin of just four points.
