At Motorsport Retro we like to get behind the wheel as well as the keyboard, so for 2015 we will be hitting the track in the NSW ProdSports championship racing a Lotus Exige.

We couldn’t go racing without the support of our partners, so a big thanks goes to Penrite Oils

We will keep you posted with news of our racing exploits during 2015.

If you would like to be involved and support our team, send an email to rich@motorsportretro.com
