Whilst flicking through my newly arrived copy of Sprint I noticed the following for sale in the classifieds.

Griff 500, Tuscan 5 litre race engine by TVR power, twin turbos by Courtney.

480 Bhp, 450 ft.lbs torque!!!!

Anyone on here own this beast? Anyone seen it? Can the Griffith chassis handle that much power and torque?

Off to have a lie down now...

PS. I am in no way connected to the seller, just thought it may be of interest people here.
