I've got the 7 min version on my PC at home. I'll try and get it on photobucket and put a link on here tomorrow. Pending my competence in doing so?

Isn't the clip from the Clarkson Full throttle DVD?


I also like the 4.5 comparison againsts the 700bhp Skyline:

The skyline wins of course, but the cerb's not that far behind

Questions - Did the Cerbera in that 2nd video have a race tuned engine like the car in the first VID, or was it a standard 4.5?
Was that race with the Skyline the same distance as the first vid?
Any idea of the times they did?

Just curious.

TVR did have at least one factory cerb (the yellow TVR100 one) that was used by journos that had special induction and other specials. According to the mechanic who worked at Station Hill in Farnham it was amazingly fast and much faster than standard. I assume the drag race one had a similiar set up.

Was Station Hill in Farnham what is now Hawthorn's garage?

Station Hill was the TVR place at one time, then Hawthorns took the mantle but left Station Hill on older cars and servicing I think. Hawthorns at last shout was a carpet showrom me thinks???
