Appolgies in advance for the jerky images, but you might find a couple of good bits.

The original video is obviously higher quality, but how to host it?

BTW: Mine is the Crimson Starmist Chimaera with the English flag. The odd revs in Whitehall was because she was running over 100 degrees and kept stalling.

The *really* loud one at the lights at the top of Whitehall is, I believe, from the Blue Cerbie (just visible).

The first bit is us crawling northwards on the M1 as the convey headed south. The next bit is us parked up on the A40 waiting for the convoy (they went another route) Then, at last, we get hooked up.

Thank you. One day I'll get a proper recording.

The growls you hear are mild compared to what she can really do. (As instructed, I was trying to behave myself).

Lead Foot,
I was the driver of the Red Glow Tuscan vert with John Mleczek as passenger( John, his Father & Son were featured in Nov,SPRINT..3 generations of TVR Workers), John is also Blackpool TVRCC RO. We thoroughly enjoyed the sound of your Chim, as did most of the Picadilly Passers-by...it was awesome...supplemented by the odd Cerbie....but I'm not at 6000 miles yet so I did my best but didn't go above 3500 revs.

I blame the editor. I think that was the time we lapsed into a boring conversation about how hot our cars were running. No offense

It was a privilege to be there. I'm slightly choked in fact. Without having any idea who was who, I was hoping your passenger was one of the workers. clap thumbup

First glimpse I've had of mine - Reflex Charcoal Tamora, indicated and pulled out in front of you on Whitehall. Just a glimpse of the offside rear in front of you a bot later.

Excellent video;I'm gonna have to fit a sports exhaust now.....

Credit must go to the previous owner who made me so jealous I had to buy the car off him.

Incidentally, the work was done at Tower View (just down the road from the Ace).

A word of warning though, at 106dB she's banned from most race tracks.nono With the removable mufflers inserted she sounds like a steam engine, so I very rarely use them.

But on a day like Sunday... ohhh, Boy!! biglaugh

Nice. These things always take more work than you think. Worth it though, well done.

What a co-incidence that we were only a few cars away in Piccadilly. There is a distinct sound I immediately recognised
