In conjunction with the New Zealand Racing Drivers Club (NZRDC), the New Zealand Motorsport Masters & Friends Dinner is a get together in celebration of the personalities in motorsport from all eras of competition.
Organised by Brian Lawrence, Garry Pedersen, Jono Lester and Robyn Taylor, the dinner is an open invitation to the drivers, the crews, the sponsors, the volunteers, the media, the unique personalities and anybody who has had a hand in New Zealand motorsport, past and present.
The Motorsport Masters & Friends Dinner is a social gathering which is hoped to become an annual event for the industry to come together and enjoy an evening without the distractions and pressure of the race track.
“This will be the first of what we hope will become an annual highlight on the social calendars of the ladies and gentleman who make our sport special,” Lawrence says.
“Our aim is to bring together you and your fellow motorsport personalities from both the bygone & modern eras to share in an evening of laughs, memories and fun.”
With so many well known people fading out of the sport over time, Lawrence says that to make the annual event a success will need word of mouth to be spread to all and any who are interested in attending.
“Our aim is to bring together you and your fellow motorsport personalities from both the bygone & modern eras to share in an evening of laughs, memories and fun.
“Some of our first confirmed guests are making the trip across the Tasman from Australia, which is encouraging in that we are not the only ones who think an event of this nature is well overdue.”
