Congrats to LNT well deserved been monitoring their progress since the start . Truely great to break the 911 grasp too

As already said it should have been a TVR and could have been if the factory carried on its support of motorsport .

Well done again

Nice one LNT - well deserved!

A quick question (as I know you are a member) - how did you keep the car so clean all the time???

Sounded great at Arnage where we spent most of the 24hours.

thanks to everyone who supported the team and the event. we ran our own race strategy and pace to conserve the car. this is the first time any make other than Porsche has won the GT2 class.........

the car felt as good at the 22 hour stage as at the one hour stage........ i think we could have pushed the car harder during the race but you only know this after finishing

I'd noticed that your fastest lap was about 5 secs slower than the other top runners in the class.

Edit: Just realised that this was my first comment on the thread. I started the one on the TVRCC site though. Congratulations again though.

Many congratulations to LNT.

As a TVR man I am fairly sure that the 400R would not have done what the Panoz did this time. A shame but I think Gareth Evans Chamberlain-Synergy team & Lawrence Tomlinson's LNT team got as close as the TVR was going to go. Neither of these teams were works TVR as far as I am aware but it is a crying shame that TVR have not continued to promote their motorsport heritage.

As chairman of the London Car Club I have to congratulate
Tom Kimber-Smith on his contribution to this superb result.Tom's father Geoff and I competed in national saloons and Geoff is a BTCC class winner. Tom is also a winner of the LCC's Graham Hill Memorial Trophy so I am biased! LNT have done a fantastic job and lets not forget that the "works" Multimatic Panoz lasted but briefly.

Well done boys.
