Yip, my trusty Tasmin race car has now been sold. Its been an absolute pleasure driving, maintaining and developing the car over the last 4 years. Its propelled me to an overall Championship win and two Class C Championship wins and has been 100% reliable. Only times it has broken is when I have done something stupid (hmmmm....Anglesey and Cadwell spring to mind whistle )

This is one of the fastest N/A V6 Tasmins to have ever raced in the TVR championships. What a great car!

Its reassuring to know it'll be back in the Challenge next year in the hands of its new owner, who is a smashin' bloke I have know for a few years.

I now feel its time to move up to a Class B RV8 Tuscan Challenge car which I am now recommissioning after I rescued it from a 9 year stay in a garage in Scotland.

Anyway, many thanks for answering my questions over the years and for supporting Wedge racing thumbup

Good to hear the Taz is going to a good home and look forward to seeing you out in a Tuscan, leave it RV8 they sound so much better and after all TvR raced whem and raced them hard with the rover unit, more than enought power to have fun.
I would realy love a racing Tuscan as a road car....

I know the chap who has bought it, as you say a really great bloke.

He has 4 TVR's now, Cerbera, S3C, Wedge 280 Coupe he uses for Sprints and now this one. I'll have to go and see him, see if I can blag a drive biggrin

He has just put his S3C up for sale, 20k miles only eek
