I met Graeme Lowdon today, CEO of Virgin Racing, whilst doing a photoshoot today.

Top bloke, really friendly and easy to talk to. As we walked back to the carpark (him to his Maserati Quatroporte), he asked, "is that your TVR"?

Another discussion on how he has a 1961 TVR Grantura as a project which has rear end damaged by a transit apparently.

Small world when you own a TVR.

A certain Midlands based lead singer has now had his rebuilt, although it is being kept off the road this winter. A lesson learned and all that! Although he is it not adverse to putting it through it's paces when conditions allow - it was well warmed up at the last Asda Bruntingthorpe event.

Liam was a PHer a while back (can't remember his username) but got hacked off with everyone reckoning he was a school boy with a fantasy garage. Shame.

He's still here, posts occasionally. Currently has a Carrera GT with a massively loud exhaust. Master_P is the name.

Those that know who he is, say things like 'saw you at work the other day' and everyone else doesn't have a clue.... hehe

Glad you asked, just googled it, apparently he has something to do with a pop/rock combo organisation entitled the Prodigy. Believe they raise their voices somewhat and speak of pyromania..
