It is with regret that the Club has to announce the death of Full Member Chris Lawrence, who passed away on the 13th August.
Chris joined the BRDC in 1965 following his 1962 Le Mans class win and other international successes with his famous Lawrencetune Morgan Plus Four. In 1966/67, Chris took part in several F1 races, including the British and German GPs, in a Cooper-Ferrari T73.
Chris was a very talented engineer who created the various Mini-based Deep-Sandersons, the Monica road car and designed and developed high performance versions of various Morgans including the Aero 8.
Condolences have been passed to Chris’s wife, Carrie. Funeral arrangements will be confirmed when available.
