The TT is a very special car and as far as we know, the first road car derived race car built to this spec in the UK.

In September 2008 the team entered the Silverstone Britcar 24 Hour race. The race was a great success as our first entry and the car ran 2nd in class at the peak of its performance. The car is very easy on its tyres whilst making great lap times. Despite a few tactical errors the car ran 2nd in class and 15th over all, finally a coil pack failure led to a head gasket leak at 16 hours. We were still classed as finishers and had a great chance of winning the class.  

In the summer of 2009 the car was modified again to incorporate road legal items such as -
  • Number plates
  • New driver and passenger seat
  • Extra silencer
  • New graphics

The car is now available as a road demonstrator to experience the awesome power and handling. Serious customers are very welcome to call us to arrange a ride on 01908 821216.
