  Episode #10

  SS10 // RALLY CLUB

  Jul 5, 20261h 48mS1

  Club rallying and grass roots motorsport is all about the journey. Whilst some competitors use the pathways designed into our sport to progress to bigger challenges, others are happy to stay immersed and build their legacy in a particular category or championship. SS10 of RALLY CLUB goes on one final journey for this first series of the podcast. Telling the story of competitors like Bernie Nolan and Roger Stanford, who have swapped stage rally and historic touring cars for the lanes of North Humberside Motor Club’s classic tour. Young Cole and Mabel are at the start of their respective motorsport journeys, while Ian Barnes has been competing in club rallying since the 1970s and still, in his seventies, loves nothing more than throwing a rally car around. 2025 was the ‘Year of the Micra’ - I said so! For Dylan Fowler-Bishop and Dan Evans, winning the BTRDA Bronze Star title in their 1400 Micra was not only a dream come true, it opened doors to the next opportunity. And when a double Junior Rally Champion and Mini Rally Challenge Champion joins forces with a two-time BHRC title winner, big things can happen. As Charlie Mathewson and Josh Carr have found out in their first British Rally Championship season together. However your club motorsport journey looks so far, I truly hope you enjoyed being with me on this journey through the stories of our sport. I’ll be back for Series 2 of Rally Club, with some Special Selective episodes of the podcast thrown in for good measure in the meantime. For now, thank you for following on social media, for subscribing wherever you listen to your podcasts, and for lending your enthusiasm and support to helping me make Rally Club a success. Here’s to the journey. #RallyClub

  SS9 // RALLY CLUB

  Jun 21, 20261h 13mS1

  SS9 of RALLY CLUB is a works Escort special, with stories from one of the foremost authorities on Boreham-built rally cars, Dave Watkins. Keeping the Escort theme, Jon Seth tells us how he chanced upon a significant Motoring News Championship Mk1 Escort, which he’s now campaigning in its original, unique livery. Paul speaks to the rally driver, tackling an adventure with a difference in the name of charity, and the organisers of the brand new North West Rally Legends event talk about the inspiration behind bringing rally cars back to Haigh Hall for the first time in 40 years. We also talk road rally logistics with a competitor’s perspective of the Rally App Live system, which has benefitted and divided road rally and targa organisers in equal measure. And it’s Rallycross week, as Paul prepares to saddle up in the Spark Developments squad for the second round of the Minicross Driver’s Association Championship, driving a fire-breathing 205 GTI in the pre-90s Classics class.
