TMS Griff Finishes in Front

TVR Griffith wins TVRCC Challenge race then drives home


The TMS Griffith had a gret debut at the TVRCC Championship race held last weekend (9th May) at Cadwell Park, Lincolnshire.

The car qualified second during practise and then in very wet conditions driver Paul Glynn executed an excellent start and lead from the front to finish.

After the race, the car, which has always been kept road legal, was driven the 100 miles home by Glynn!

The next TVR CC club race will be at Snetterton on 30 May.

If you'd like to see the racing Griffith in the flesh, it will be on show at PistonFest from 2nd-4th July.

It was nice to see the TMS griff out there, running in class Q the anything goes invitation class they had a TVR power Takara Spec Engine and Proper Wet weather Tyres. Just giving it the edge over Simon Bowes in the Class B Griff 500 with standard engine, control tyres but with suspension mods.


The Class Winners were


Q - Paul Glynn - Griff 500
B - Simon Bowes - Griff 500
A - Graham Walden - Tasmin 280i (i.e me )


The Season is shaping up for Some vary varied entries with everything from Original 1960's Griffs to modern Day Cerberas, and even an ex tuscan challenge car is rumored.
