Masters celebrates Award winners

Masters Historic Racing celebrated its 2008 season winners on Saturday January 17 at the Speedmaster Conference Centre. These unusual awards are not points based, but voted for by the Masters' members themselves, rewarding a combination of driving skill with presentation, sporting behaviour and the correct spirit.

In addition to recognising some fabulous racing in all classes of the Masters GT category, Masters awarded the Gentleman Drivers GT and Sports Endurance Driver of the Year award to Keith Ahlers for his efforts in his Morgan, co-driven and prepared by Billy Bellinger.

Keith of course picked up 1st on Index at the Le Mans Classic in 'TOK' with John Emberson and Bill Wyckham 3rd in 'RU'. Keith in 'TOK' and Sebba/Lees/Plant in the Series 1 then won the overall index for team 66.

Not a bad year for these remarkable cars!!
