It has been delayed because of trip to Le Mans apparently. Don't forget only one chap puts the whole thing together!

Yeah, this is getting a bit silly now..... what was the "end of each month" has become 6-8 weeks apart. I know it's a difficult job but with 5-7000 members we deserve better.
The Editor is a fine bloke, I've met him a few times but he doesn't seem to get the help and support he deserves from the commitee.....the mag is probably the most important aspect of the TVRCC and it's about time this lot realised and did something to make it more professional. It's a much better magazine nowadays than it's ever been and it just needs that final push......

If anyone wants to pitch in and help them get Sprint out on time I'm sure they'd be delighted to hear from you. When hardworking unpaid volunteers feel under attack they have been known to think '**** it' and walk away. Then no-one gets Sprint, ever.

I think it's a little bit late this month as Tony Connor the editor took time out to go to Lemans, as he does every year. I am sure the wait will be totally worth while and at least he goes to the TVR events.
Come on give them a breather

The Spint mag has never been better IMHO.

Saw Carol at the Festival of Speed today and she said that the mag left the printers last thing Thursday and should be with you Mon/tues. They had a copy at the stand there, I almost 'borrowed' it

Yeah, mine arrived this morning too.

There is no doubt about it - Sprint is now the best its been since I'be been getting it. Frankly it rivals Porsche Post for quality - which is quite a compliment since PP's budget must surely be double Sprint's.

Keep up the good work, I say. And I must write something..!

Got mine, or was it Maxy Muppet?
As I'm flicking through it, I notice a large increase in the number of skantily clad young ladies, and motors with whooping great wings on the rump
But I do like that Cerbera, but I can live without the rear wing as I see an old Honda CRX with one just the same most mornings

Yeah, got mine today and it's superb. Easily the best yet and thankfully people are now helping Tony with articles. Lets hope the club get behind him to keep the progress up.....

Well done Tony.....

Simpo I think you may find the "poor" unpaid volunteer editor now gets a good salary from the TVR CC to produce the SPRINT magazine

I dont think the editor has ever said he was poor or unpaid. He is a retired person who is also a TVR fanatic who does a great job for the rest of us. He now needs support from us to continue the good work. Cut out the crap people and support him. He produces a great Mag. It is certainly better than the Morgan Mag.

poor or unpaid, rich or not who gives a flying stuff, the mag is looking better than ever, much better than the BMW F1 mag from the BMW/Williams F1 team and i'm sure that they have a huge budget !!! If people are interested they can turn out better material than people who view it just as a job.

editor sir, good job, look forward to each month and a new edition of Sprint !!

The club as a whole is great, the number of events, regional meeting, and the quality of the mag is so much better than any other car club I've been a member of
Keep up the good work, and not just the editor, don't forget everyone else behind the scenes in the club
