\nRace Retro 2011 also highlighted the rally marque of Lancia, whose history in motorsport’s toughest discipline with its Stratos and Integrale models lives on today in classic rallying.
\nRace Retro 2011 not only featured classic machines, but the legends that wheeled them around the tracks, including Johnny Herbert, Giacomo Agostini, Barrie ‘Whizzo’ Williams, Richard Attwood, Tim Parnell and Miki Biasion, among others.
\nIn addition to the cars and motorcycles and the stars that drove them, race series organisers, manufacturers and motorsport suppliers offered everything needed for the coming season. Or if your interest was as a collector, the event had hundreds of traders selling artwork, rare books and signed motorsport memorabilia.
