Pretty sure the two TVRs were running low 9's back in the summer.
My best was a 9.9 in the golf.

70/80mph sounds about right.

Cheers,
AL

Hello mate, Joe has decided to meet us in Plymouth first for a bacon roll so we will be passing but we are now stopping at Exeter Moto services as we now have an additional Cerbera and Chimaera meeting us there from N. Devon.

About 10.20 for a 10.30 off.
