Summary

Kevin Turner sits down with Stephen Lickorish for another edition of Autosport’s National Podcast, with Stefan Mackley as a special guest to add a unique perspective as a part-time racer himself as this episode focuses on the state of club racing entering 2025. Stephen shares his research on the grid sizes and participation of multiple clubs and championships across the country. Between them, the trio analyses the impact the Russian/Ukraine conflict has had on the scene, discusses what can be done to improve participation across the board, and talks about some of the difficulties that come with competing series, such as track time, organising dates, rising fees due to inflation and more.
