Well done to Rob for winning Rookie Driver of the year at this years end of season awards for his first season in the Tuscan Challenge. A well deserved award for a season of effort. And well done to the team for consistently putting out a reliable car all season.

Next season a top three place in the championship standing and maybe driver of the year as well !!

Cheers
Darren

Yep, well done Rob. Top driving and top entertainment.

Shame Shorty and co didn't even get a mention for their achievements in a TVR this year...

Shocking case of sour grapes on TVR's part. Shorty did more for TVR's publicity this year than it has ever done for itself (hero of British GTs/24hrs Spa-Francorchamps).

Mind you, he's got a Mosler now, so he's probably not that bothered.

Ted I think that you only have to say Mosler to clear that up - that's a guess and not from any other source i.e. Shorty. Still think it's sour grapes as has already been said i.e. Spa 24hrs but on the other hand I guess had they wanted to be pedantic they would not have invited him to the dinner?? 's advoate and all that - no offence to Shorty intended

I haven't been here for a while... was it politics ? I hate politics . They have done an awful lot for TVR this year by bringing home the first endurance race in TVR history. Still, Shorty's heart beats in Blackpool. Anyway, I wish him luck for the future. And looking at what he does with the (and for Warren) Mosler it looks bright. Florida is also a very nice place to let the heart beat. Sorry Ted, had a bad day...
