Dutch Supercar Cup - Spa

14/10/2007

 
Picture
The Team Holden Sagaris AJP, driven by Andy Holden and Darren Dowling suffered a wheel bearing failure during Saturday's race when running in 7th place after qualifiyng 12th out of 54 cars.
Today (Sunday), Andy started the car from the back of the grid of 54 before pitting in 17th place. After a very slow fuel stop, Darren continued the charge to finish the hour long race 6th overall and on the same lap as the DTM Audi that won the race. 2:33sec laps show how quick the car is and when one looks at the car's origins as a Tuscan Challenge Car this is an amazing tribute to all involved in the team. Well done to Team Holden!   

Head makes it a clean sweep at Brands to take the Championship

Le Mans Contender at "THE ROCK"

25/6/2007

I have had confirmation today that John Hartshorne from Peninsula will be bringing the 2005 Le Mans car to the 60th celebrations in August and it gets better than that, the car will have an engine in it and will be running at Rockingham. So even if you didn't get to Le Mans in 2005 you will have a chance to see the car IN ACTION at the biggest TVR party to date.  

4th for Shorty at Le Mans

18/6/2007

 
Picture
In another Le Mans 24 hours dominated by Audi with their 7th successive overall victory and the second for their diesel-powered R10, our special congratulations go out the fourth place and TVRCC favourite, Martin Short. St Ives based 'Shorty', well known to all TVR enthusiasts with his exploits through the 1990s in the TVR Tuscan Challenge and later in GT racing in his Cerbera and Tuscan R, was just 10 laps off the podium in his Rollcentre Racing Pescarolo Judd along with co-drivers Joao Barbosa from Portugal and Stuart Hall from Essex.

Mixed fortunes at Snetterton

17/6/2007

 
Picture
It was split honours for current Class A leader Tim Hood and former TVR Tuscan Challenge runner up David Mason at Snetterton today. Race 1 went to Mason, nearly 20 seconds ahead of Darren Dowling and some 53 seconds ahead of third placed Dean Cook whilst Hood, after setting fastest lap, went out on lap 8.   Fortunes were reversed in Race 2 where Hood took the chequered flag by some 7.8 seconds ahead of Dowling. By contrast, Mason retired after just 2 laps. In both races, Class B was won by Tony Abrams and Class C by current Championship leader Sam Head (right).
The TVRCC is grateful to the race sponsors, Sebring International. The next race, sponsored by Castle Race Engines, is at Cadwell Park on 15 July. 

Le Mans Report - 20 Hrs

17/6/2007

 
Picture
So we're into the last 5 hours, and the night's survivors are hanging in there - some better than others!

Audi No 1 (Biela) leads following the early morning demise of McNish's No.2, when a wheelnut released, launching Capello into the wall. 2nd is no 7 - Jaques Villeneuve's Peugeot 4.5 laps behind.

In GT1 - the Corvette No.63 of Magnusson is chasing the Aston 009 of David Brabham for class honours, with less than 1 lap between them. 3rd is Larbre Aston 008 and Aston 007 is 4th after an off by Johnny Herbert.

In LMP2, the Lola Zytek No.31 car leads - huge attrition in this class means that there are effectively only two runners. 

In GT2 - Repairs to 76 Porsche have delayed it, but is it still leading from No.99 Ferrari and No.93 Porsche

The No.82 Panoz is still running but out of contention, down in 5th

Le Mans report - 6 hrs

16/6/2007

 
Picture
Well, thrills and spills all round in the first six hours - more than I can keep up with updating here without it becoming a full time job!! But, the rain early on took out the No 3 Audi at Tetre Rouge, leading to a safety car whilst the barrier was replaced (wish our motorway maintenance guys were so quick!) - this led to a chaos of pitstops and tyre changes, but since then, some stability (and attrition) is starting to happen, and the race is taking shape.

Le Mans report -1 hrs

16/6/2007

 
Picture
Time 1400 (EUR) -1hr The buildup to the 75th 24 Heures du Mans is well underway, the grid is filling up with the start in 1 hour - 3pm European time (2pm uk). Weather conditions here can best be described as changeable - high winds, and alternate bright sunshine and heavy rainshowers. The stage is therefore set for a great race - a number of battles are eagerly awaited - in particular between the diesel powered Peugeots and Audi in LMP1 and between the Corvettes and Aston Martins in LMGT1. In the support 'Le Mans Legends' races, Daniel Nash and Kingsley Martin acquitted themselves well in the Le Mans Grantura - more on that later. I will aim to keep you updated with the action as we go through the 24 hours - technology permitting!

Le Mans report - legends

16/6/2007

 
Picture
Daniel Nash and Kingsley Martin today again raced their Grantura at Le Mans. The car that is a veteran of the 1962 Le Mans 24 hr race, and the 2006 Le Mans classic, scored another successful finish at Le Mans.

They went from a grid position of 55th to 41st - and were dicing (cruelly held up by) a Corvette 275 and Project DB2 Aston. Daniel was also treated to a front-row seat for a Healey 3000 spinning in front of him on the first Mulsanne chicane - 'carrying 10 mph more than a TVR into chicane braking zone just isn't sensible'!

The damp conditions with cross-ply tyres meant the going was a little slippery, but the car went (in Kingsley's words) "like an absolute dream". Dan elaborated that it went like "A Hawaiian tropic girl on a trawler in a force 9 gale". Someone needs to explain that one to me!.. More seriously, he said the car was a credit to Ian Massey-Crosse together with Don & Scott at Radford Racing who had set the car up,
