     WHERE TO GO THIS WEEKEND: 1st NOVEMBER                  

        
RALLYE PRESCOTT. The event we've all been waiting for: This almost unique daytime/nightime extravaganza has again attracted a full entry, and takes place on 1st November 2025. Expect to see everything from flame splitting WRC to graceful rally cars of the Fifties. Team Retro-Speed will be not only there, but also, racing up the hill, so please, come and say hello.












Details have just arrived on my desk concerning Anniversary Monte 100 Classique 2026. An epic non-competitive winter adventure for classic cars dated between 1924-1986, leaving John O'Groats on 29 January, finishing in Monte Carlo seven days later. The route will run down through Scotland, avoiding motorways, to Hull, where crews embark the overnight ferry to Rotterdam. It's then hot foot to Reims where the rally gets underway proper, following a traditional route through France, across the Alps, and on to Monte Carlo. As a finale, the last day includes a drive over the famous Col de Turini before a special gala dinner at the harbourside headquarters of the ACM. The entry fee of £795 per person includes three hotel nights, the dinner, and ferry crossing with cabin, which surely makes this event bargain of the century.
