Ian, you've done a great job on your Griff. Just take care when you're next at the 'ring.

Cheers guys.

The light pods were originally for a chimp (shhhh) with mini side lights but were filled in due to inclusion in dips now. Provided by Fibreon and then blended in, fitted and painted by Aeromotive at Birstall.

The wheels are team dynamics pro race 1.2's in anthracite, 17 front 18 rear.

Give me a pm if you need info.
I think you really need to reinstate the TVR badge to the nose.

Great run out last weekend with the Sporting Bears Motor Club... 145 miles on Saturday, 40 miles on Sunday thumbup

Good company, great route. Had fun with the Ferrari and S2000 boys, few pics for you...

Starting off - Kings Head Hotel, Ravenstonedale. Somewhere between Shap and Kirby Stephen. Griff with disreputable company...


First stop - after about 40 miles on the moors and fells...



bit later, wish I'd packed my cravat...


will post a few more in a sec (t'interweb playing up...)

Day 2 - amazing views from Kirkstone Pass biglaugh



Cleared up a bit for BBQ at Ullswater



...how I spent Bank Holiday Monday (big seagulls in West Cumbria....)



All cleaned up, ready for the Tuesday commute. This little jaunt was just under 500 miles, two tanks of fuel, the Griff never missed a beat all weekend (unlike the driver)thumbup Off to the Fastlane Show at Hexham this weekend, can't wait!

Hmmmm.... A slab sided, ponderous design, odd proportions, likely to be outgunned.... and a tank.

Just kidding - am liking the stripes, bet that one doesn't spend any time at the Golf Club smile

Cheers - i'm not 100% sure about the vent, its carbon fibre and perfect for the job - I need it for the custom airbox and it gives a great sounding inlet roar, pretty sure I'll find a missing cat/dog/small child has been sucked up in there one day hehe

It ain't particularly subtle though. I got past the 355 in the pics on a dual carriageway - we were both trying quite hard. The Ferrari guy was upshifting at 7.5k I couldn't hear a thing apart from the glorious noise from both ends of mine biggrin

Was pondering getting the bonnet vent changed over to something that looked a bit more 'factory' - although some have said the NACA duct is probably how they'd have done it anyway! I like the vents that went on the Griff Speed 6 prototype, i even like (whisper it) the bonnet vent on the later SE Wedges... Any other suggestions? ears

Looks like it too, on the pic.

But the Griff next to most cars surprises me. I think they're mega small.

In total agreement! When I parked up next to my Audi for the first time a few weeks ago I stood back and scratched my head!
