Forgive me If I'm missing something here but why are the 2 entrants T400Rs and not T440Rs? Is it to do with build numbers?

I also see that the article on the Le Mans site mentions they use a Hewland box. Thought TVR had their own 6-speed sequential or is that not ready yet?

Finally, anyone know what power figures they get out of the Speed 6 in this installation?

400 bhp with the 5% restrictors. I think it's a regulation thing it's not a T440 - I think they would have ended up in the GTS class.

Cheers,

I heard through one of the dealerships that the sequential box isn't finished yet as it keeps slipping in 2nd gear. So no sequential T440s yet
