It is with great pleasure that the Australian Motor Sport Foundation (AMSF) invites you to honour a true legend of Australian and international motorsport.

Tim Schenken's Career

Tim Schenken's contribution to motor sport extends far past his driving days and transcends generations of drivers and fans alike. Tim's racing career spanned over 20 years, racing sports cars, Formula Ford, Formula 3, Formula 2 and eventually Formula 1. Following a move to the UK in 1965, Tim made a stunning impact on international racing in 1968; dominating the categories he raced in. In that year Tim won both the British Formula Ford Championship and the British Formula 3 Championship – a feat never achieved before and has not been emulated since. Tim was only the second Australian, after Sir Jack Brabham, to score World Championship points in a Formula 1 race. With Alan Jones and Mark Webber, Tim is still only one of four Australians to do so.

In recent times Tim has established himself as one of the most respected motor sport administrators in the world; holding the position of Director of Racing Operations at CAMS, as well as Race Director for the V8 Supercar series. Tim was also a Clerk of Course at both the 2008 and 2009 Formula 1™ Singapore Grand Prix; as well as the Formula 1™ Australian Grand Prix since 1985. Tim still remains the Clerk of Course and Chairman of the Organising Committee for the Formula 1™ Australian Grand Prix.

The Australian Motor Sport Foundation is delighted to celebrate and honour the career of Tim Schenken; a true legend and personality of motor sport.

Guests will be treated to a three course meal, live entertainment and a number of motor sport personalities honouring and paying tribute to Tim Schenken. With Bill Woods as the evenings MC, guests will be entertained by comedian Trevor Marmalade; as well as a number of rare pieces of memorabilia that will be auctioned on the evening. Limited to only 450 places, make sure you secure your tickets to celebrate the career of Tim Schenken.

The AMSF

All funds raised through the sale of tickets and auction items will go to support the AMSF. The AMSF is a not-for-profit body set up to nurture and support our young Australian motor sport stars of the future. The AMSF aims to ensure that Australia's young drivers and other motor sport personnel are assisted in every way possible to make them, and Australia, once again a dominant force in international motor sport.

I personally look forward to seeing you on the evening to honour a true legend of our sport.
