Which 5 car related people would you invite, past or present?

John Surtees
Di Montezemelo
James Hunt
Walter Rohrl
Murray Walker

Hunt's presence should ensure the night continues for a week or so. :-)

Nice mix of interesting and amusing characters who all like a drink.

OP started this after reading Dickie Meaden's column in Evo this month by any chance?
Sat in the car watching my 14 year old's football training due to no match this morning, reading that article and bored. You got me! ;-)

Some great suggestions. Mr Harris is very popular, I don't know the guy obviously but If Monkey's videos are any representation of his personality a night out would be a good laugh. Jethro from EVO seems a good guy too. In fact those two plus Chris Evans strike me as the next Top gear team.....

Guy Martin is a popular choice. James Hunt too. Had too many beers to spreadsheet it again though.
