Any T350's Le Mans Bound?

[ShiDevil]

Hi The Cerb Chaps have a thread on who is going. Any more T350's going? Where? when? I'm at Chanteloup for the weekend with a mighty convoy of Nobles and TVRs leaving Dover Thursday...

Unfortunately not going in the T350 this year; two breakdowns in the last two years have kind of put me off.

Will still miss not being in it though

Thanks There track day silencer slip ons from ACT.

Think I might have been parked next to your car at Le Mans in 2011 if it went that year. Not sure if you owned it then. It was certainly a bright orange targa, looked amazing.

Have a great time in it, a TVR is the best car to take to Le Mans IMHO

Indeed first time I saw it was at Saint Saturin, British Welcome in 2012. Thought wow, Tom the owner let me sit in it and 7 months later the rest is history travelling in convoy with 4 Nobles, a Griff, 2 Chimeras, 2 Cerbs always feels special taking her back

Will not be in my newly acquired T350 as had a slight mishap on the M20 and no I was not speeding I was in the middle lane when in all went wrong, not going into too many details but front end passenger side smashed and rear end passenger side damaged, radiator smashed, only got it Wednesday and really loved it, lets hope it is not written off.


Only good thing is that the Tuscan has not sold so will be going in that

Give my regards to Dominique when you see him...hope on the Sunday night they have the brass band on the old bus again they were excellent

I went down in my T350 for the first time and absolutely loved the experience. Although my mate did manage to make a right mess of the front wheel getting off the train.

Was my first real TVR experience of being involved with other owners and im officially hooked. If anyone can recommend other events it would be much appreciated.

Hope you all had a great time. All overshadoweded by the loss of Allan

Caught a bit of this convoy on the A16 (I think...?!) this afternoon en route to Calais, I was in the V8UK stickered Monaro following the equally stickered M3, cars looked and sounded fan-bloody-tastic

That's the thunder from down under

I think the TVRs were disadvantaged by all the camping weight, the Monaro is a fat lump to start with, so a couple of people and camping gear don't make much of an impact

I'm sure at 'race weight' I'd just have seen an orange blur!

[ShiDevil]

Possibly true, we were all riding a little low lol great fun though

Would love to see any videos / photos you got, although I bet you have a lot to sift through!

When getting the Monaro I was thinking of getting a TVR, your 3 being my preferred choices (T350T, Griff or Cerbera), but the lack of a garage meant I went for the Aussie instead.
