Unfortunately I did by the M3 frown
but slaughtered the Vectra SRi & an XR4i smile

Thanks for posting this Graham - I was just looking at doing it myself

It was great fun and a shame only 4 TVRs were there
but we are trying to arrange a date in the Spring when we can get a lot of TVRs together

It only costs £10 (per adult - kids £5)to get in and spectate and another £30 to have a go
I had 7 runs in the day with a 1/4 mile in the 14 secs and 95mph terminal speed
You only need a driving license and can even borrow a helmet if you don't have one

Cheers beer

Thanks

The BM got me mainly off the line as I had fallen asleep waiting for the lights to go on a very long hold
but he wasn't pulling away from me then. Aren't they supposed to have about 330bhp?

Yes but they weigh moer than a TVR - so it's quite an even contest.

At least with the M3's I've had a rumble with whistle

Might even be interest with the racing myself next year .. if the SEAC ever gets finished..

As much as we love them, they just aren't on the same planet are they?
(Big x for Kim by the way)
