No Tamoras on the TVR stand, a very nice T350 though. Looking forward to seeing more pictures, I can't take a decent photo even with all the electo gizmos on!

Nice little piece about the Gem in this week's Classic Car Weekly, shame they got your name wrong though John.

Andy, I think you'll find that the Beast is actually 28 litres, that's 7 litres per cylinder! It was an awesome sight running up the hill at Chateau Impney this year. What a magnificent sound and spectacle!
It is owned by Duncan Pittaway, the guy who bought Ken Appleton's TVR S Series and "slightly" modified it to compete very successfully in sporting hill climb trials. I would love to see that on the TVR stand next year!

I saw his name on the little plaque beside "The Beast" and couldn't think how I recognised it - but that's it, the "trials TVR"!
