About this listen

The first Historic Racing News Chat Show of 2026 sees the team of Paul Jurd, Jim Roller and Paul Tarsey look at some of the many special dates which will happen in 2026.

Paul Jurd has researched a whole range of anniversaries, from Ford at Le Mans in 1966 to the 70th birthday of Mallory Park, plus many more in between.

Jim Roller looks back at the auction market in 2025 in general, and the last quarter of the year in particular whilst Paul Tarsey has a view about some of the cars sold in the UK and Europe.

Race Retro happens at the end of February and the team looks forward to what they can explore both inside and outside the exhibition halls, including the rally stage.

Paul Kenny joins the guys to talk about a favourite subject of his, Whitney Straight, a successful pre-war racing driver, WW2 Hurricane pilot, prisoner of war, escapee and in the 1950s and 60s a successful businessman.
