Subject to unforeseen technical difficulties - the Legendary TVR Speed 12 will be at this year’s BNG 2012 (Big Northern Gathering)
on Saturday 8th and Sunday 9th September 2012 at Sherburn Aero Club near Wetherby in Yorkshire.

"Local Hero" Graham Abbott has kindly agreed to bring his road going Speed 12 to the event
and will be doing it's first test runs down the 2 mile long runway on the Saturday,
and will be part of the static display on the Sunday.

If this wasn’t good enough, one lucky person will have passenger ride down the runway on the Saturday.

There is one ride only, and will be offered to whoever gives the largest contribution to our chosen 2 Charities.
There will no other freeby rides, just the one charity run is available. All the other runs will be to used to test the car.

There is no other road car quite like it! More information on this legendary car is here: http://www.speed12.info/

Many thanks to Graham for his generous help with BNG 2012

Cheers

Super

I wonder if they have any ladders at the aero club? I could get a little higher for the group shot...
Definitely - as they have to use them when they fill some high wing aircraft fuel tanks
