John,

Glad you enjoyed the vid, "Here comes the Looney"!

Thanks for posting the pic of the Mazda, I usually get ignored without the TVR.

John.

Who was the Looney, or is it a collective noun for TVR owners??

I think the Mazda photo is great and its difficult to ignore anyone that committed at the bottom of the mountain.

Anyone would think you were trying to catch last orders .

Looks almost like a arch-tyre interface, looking at where on the tyre the smoke is coming from...

I saw this car on the 7th outside Humberside Airport, I guess you were driving down for this, pity we were both stuck in traffic, would have been nice to have heard you coming!

Great photo's. Did anyone get one of my green Griff?

I remember Mark had lots of smoke coming off the rear tyres at Brands last year so that pic is probably showing the same thing. I didn't get to a chance to say "Hi" Mark - we shared a garage at Brands - not quite sure why but the day seemed to whizz by!

Any of a black S, Orange Cerbera or Orange Wedge would be greatly appreciated.

If someone has lots of pics of the day i'm sure we can agree a price for a disk.

Thanks

Adrian

Yes your right Wil that is arch-tyre touching. I had it at brands when two up and the same at Cadwell, its ok on flat tracks. Its due to TVR not putting the body on square to the chassis by about 10mm, therefore the rear near side tyre sticks out slightly more. I will have to raise the spring height up a bit more.

Its a nice thought that its due to the tarmac but as you can see by the photos my front wheels are straight and i doubt very much you could smoke the tyre up with a measley 280bhp at the wheels unless your tail sliding.

I hope I proved though that BHP is not the be all and end all to quick-ish lap times, Chassis, dampers and geometry plays a rather large part.

Must say though them Sagaris's are very photogenic especially Daftlads..


Edited to say the reason its stick on the track is due to Brian at Topcats Racing,

Glad to have been of service, being a North Yorkshirian, will you be attending the monthly pub meet on Monday? (It's in the Yorkshire forum)
