That's Danny's green Tuscan. My Tuscan actually came from Sweden as well and was the sister car to this one, built by Ulf Eriksson and his Bäcka Event racing team. The team built and owned my one and then they also ran Han's for him as I understand it so they were painted the same for a long time. I have some more pics of both somewhere and a rather cool X-ray type cutaway drawing of Han's car from the workshop in Sweden. you yellow racer reminds me to the Stegia Tuscan Racer of Hans T. from sweden...

If you have any more pics of my car i'd love to see them. It's had a pretty interesting life by the look of it and I think the swedish pair won a lot of races in the Nordic supercar series judging by the amount of lead plates I had to remove from the tub when I bought it in pieces a couple of years ago!
I remember watching these on TV, which is what got me in to TVR's. It wasn't until about 2002/2003 that I went to brands to see them live. Since then I have tried to go to at least one race a year. Last year I managed to attend 4 rounds, admittedly just spectating, funds do not allow anything else at the moment! I'd love to watch these rounds from the glory years again.
