Blackiepauls LS Powered Sagaris

[BatleyBoy]

Bought Blackiepauls ex Saggy engine, and picked it up yesterday.

Paul gave me and my pal a run in his LS powered Sagaris. I've read the other threads and posts on this subject, but let me tell you this car is absolutely stunning....utterly unbelievable performance. I've been in some quick motors over the years, but nothing likle this.

I guess it took a lot of balls to undertake (and fund) the project, but it must be worth every penny....and more.

This is the car TVR should have built!

Cheers. BB.

I agree, but then like you I've been in it as well, which I feel is where the difference is.

Sounds like the only thing left to do is a twin turbo kit. In an ideal world my TVR will have something like this under the bonnet...

Oh, and it will be parked somewhere like this...

Great to see you, it was fun taking the two of you out. My favourite comment "its good to be scared XXiXless every now and then"

The Ring is my favourite place on Earth - I dream of going back one day. If you get a chance, go out for a ride in the Ring Taxi as it is just something else!

Is it strange that I've got a shoot of an Enzo coming up and I'm looking forward to the shoot of yours more?

Mates got an Enzo and already had a race with him. The ring is great, the Sag does ground out there a bit though. I have never been in the ring taxi, if there is space then I will have a go.

You can't say you had a race then not tell us the outcome

I think you have to book in advance for the ring taxi...

70 - 140, 5th gear and no changes, the Sag won.

We really enjoyed the trip, and the blast up and down the run way was special.
There will be a few of us 'Batley Lads' at the BNG/Back Home event, so hope to see you then and witness your run down the prom!
Cheers. Simon
