[tvrjohn]

Just got Sprint Mag, small picture of Purple Monster on page 29 doesn't do it justice !
Bodywork mods on the front look great
Any more photos anyone ?

I'm sure there will be a queue Graham.....

There will surely be those mad enough to want to experience it...

Thing is......do I.....am I that brave.........

This car should reach over 200 miles an hour.....

There is a corner at the bottom of the straight.....


I think I'll ask Campbell if he intends to get a parachute fitted... and a supply of sick bags.......

Hi Campbell, many thanks for the offer, that would be very kind of you.

Perhaps we could run a feature on the car at TCR?

Let me know - See you in a few weeks.

Don't know what a nitrous cerbies would be like but have heard tell of a 5.3 griff with nitrous that, apparently accelerates from 100-150 in about 5 secs .
Assuming plenty of run up at bruntingthorpe where 500's were reaching 163mph (alan_d's) I'm sure that your beast should crack 200 whether theres enough stopping room is anothing thing .
Must remember to watch or even add my name to list of potential passengers in this.
I assume that its the same tweeked cerbie as at mania last year at duxford just a bit more tweeked this time round .

Oooh, too late for that cos the meet is the day AFTER Bruntingthorpe.

BUT...what about tickets sold on the day by the car!!!!
I volunteer for that....
The raffle could be run in the morning for the runs down the straight in the afternoon....

Proceeds...................Hearing Dogs for the Deaf....... as it's a TVRcc event!!??

What do you reckon Cam?
Do you think we would sell plenty of tickets!????
