Found myself coming back to this post and reading the whole thing again! The one thing that seems to come across more than anything else is what a top bloke Lee is, feck me every time someone wrongly critisizes his driving[he was having fun not trying to stay inside the lines] he offers them a drive in his car and apologises if hes caused offence!!
Top bloke with a great passion for cars, a top collection and the patience of a saint with the sort of people that pick up on the safety factor of wearing short sleeved tops nono.
Ok so your always offering rides out so figured i'd return the good will and would love for you to come a get sideways in my toysI have a 500 bhp LS powered TVR Griff and a 400b TVR350 both on 888's! Not as mental as the westie but you sound like a man who apprecaite car's full stop!
Like you i'm not a great passenger so i'd have to follow if i could keep up??
Tell us where your out next and i'll bring the tivs??
OMG! cant believe I missed this!

That would be fantastic. Thanks alot. I am a huge TVR fan and an even bigger if thats possible LS V8 fan!

pls let me know when you next have them out. Would love to see them

Sorry again for missing this. Didnt mean to be rude!

The Westfield is the sister car to this one although it only has 330BHP it lapped the Nurburgring at an incredible pace I have been asked to take mine there many times to see if we can smash the record for Caterham/Westfield cars
You must be Peter that bought Stus Red car.

Stu built mine for me after doing his. Dunno where you got the 330bhp figure from though??!?

Good luck selling your car, I'd definately go for at least a lap in it around the Ring before you sell. Its an incredible experience as so open and low and just bloody thrilling compared to anything else I've driven around Ring.



steaks are good as well here... Stus Exige was STUPIDLY quick. Scared me!

Think what he is saying that there is another car like mine used to be owned by my friend Stu (who also built mine for me)

Its red and uses a GT3076 where as I have the smaller GT3071 Turbo. Otherwise they are pretty much the same cars. Red one is for sale.

Any good racer will use every inch of track....the great Trevor Reeves who easily beat Needel around Bedford was teaching me and his biggest comment was "use more track, you have paid for all of it, so use it"
Trevor is awesome driver and the Turbocharged Golf that I saw him drive at bedford was a total weapon of a car. There was another Reeves in another equally fast Golf as well that day.
