TR Register International 2005

An excellent weekend as usual and very well attended, despite some very sorry weather on the Sunday. I saw much less of the event than usual as we had organised a TR7 30th anniversary feature and were looking after that for most of the time. Thanks to the stand 'team': Diane, Alec & Tom Pringle and my wife Sue :>>

Saturday's highlight:
Getting the display finished and actually having 12 cars (more or less) as planned representing a good cross section of TR7/8 models.

Sunday's highlight:
Harris Mann's appearance. He signed cars and paperwork and seemed genuinely moved that his design is so much appreciated and enjoyed 30 years after the cars introduction.

Whats the story with that mad yellow FHC? And also, the blue DHC in your album with the flash alloys.... what engine is under the hood there? Looks nasty. (in a good way!)

Hi John. I'll email you about the two modified cars. The yellow car is the TR8 dragster. Built using the same moulds as the 200mph TR8 Le-Mans car and with a two stage nitrous 4L V8. The blue car has a turbo charged Rover 827i engine, again with nitrous. Mad cars, but each very nicely developed and well presented!

More pictures of the dragster HERE.
