In its second year running, the Pride of the Paddock competition made its return at Race Retro for 2018 with a strong line up of 14 stunning motors featured below.
Join us in next year if you're a private owner of a racing or rally car, with your very own chance to be crowned the Pride of the Paddock 2019 winner. Any car that has competed in a race or rally at any level is eligible to enter along with high spec replicas of racing and rally cars from historic motorsport. Modified cars will be taken in to consideration alongside their counterparts.
Visitors will be invited to vote for their favourite car over the duration of the show, and the two cars with the most visitor votes will be awarded first or second place on the final day. The winning car will be invited back to next year's event along with the possibility of displaying their pride and joy at Race Retro's sister events; Practical Classics Classic Car & Restoration Show, with Discovery and The Lancaster Insurance Classic Motor Show, with Discovery.
