Welcome message from Shirley Gibson

It’s a pleasure to welcome you to our website as we begin to plan our 2025 and 13th Retro Rallycross season.

We have an exciting programme to present to our followers this year that will see us begin our campaign at Lydden Hill Race Circuit, ‘The Home of Rallycross’. It was here in Kent, some 58 years ago that the rallycross story began, and fitting that we shall begin and end our season at this legendary circuit.

The season will see Retro Rallycross teams take on 9 rounds visiting Lydden Hill, Pembrey, and Mondello Park. Retro Rallycross will visit Ireland twice this year, the first event being a non-point scoring round, followed by a double header championship round in October.

It’s always a pleasure to be able to join our many Irish friends and delighted to confirm some of those who will join us for the rest of our season; It will be a huge pleasure to welcome the Father and Son team of Alan and Davy Crockett to the retro grids with their fabulous cars, taking on the retro regulars, in the battle to get their hands on our prestigious championship trophy.

The John Button Memorial Trophy was introduced in the memory of John Button, late Father of F1’s Jenson, who endorsed with pride having his Father’s time spent in rallycross honoured by Retro Rallycross, consisting of drivers who were friends of, and raced with John back in the 1970’s/80s.

We have other new faces and cars that will also be joining us this season, keep an eye on our social pages for more information on that. Our continued growth is a priority for us, adding to the fabulous eclectic machinery already in our collection. News of new cars in build are very exciting, and we look forward to sharing that with you.

In addition to our race calendar which can be found below we have been invited to appear at several other motorsport events, these will be announced in due course. We look forward to welcoming visitors at these events as well as greeting you to our paddock area during our race weekends. Our teams love to chat and to show off their cars to you so, never be afraid to pop along and say hello.

Very Best regards,
Shirley Gibson.
