Hi

In fact the First TVR to finish a 24hr race and with a Speed Six engine!

Now I wonder is it for sale as it would go well in my collection!

When it's one of your key sponsor's colour, you paint the car in whatever way is needed.

Bonus point if you can name the only TVR to finish and Win an international 12hr Endurance race.

and the circuit

:-)

treble bonus points if you can also tell me what the actual engine size was...

[Guillotine]

The blue one is JRs and is the only factory v8 racer
Shorty was a sp6 as stated

G I'm guessing the answer is a blue tuscan with a 4l rv8 in it?

T440R @ Spa?

You need to think a bit further south and east.

Production car based too

[spitfire4v8]

that would be a malaysian chimaera then at sepang.

Fantastic stuff Martin!!

Hope there will be some photos of its rebuild on here??

I adored that car, as a long time rollcentre racing fan, I am glad it has returned home.

2 litre Cosworth S, Macau Circuit?

Excellent news; it would be nice to see it being raced again especially by Shorty as he was rather good in it!!
