TVR HEADS FOR LE MANS
For only the third time in history, TVR will be represented at Le Mans this weekend. Two Synergy Chamberlain T400Rs will be competing against the Porsches and the Ferraris in the world’s greatest motor race.
Over 24 hours of the most gruelling racing imaginable, the purple TVRs are going to be pushed to the limit by six British drivers and supported by a remarkable British team. Synergy Chamberlain is owned by TVR road car and racing car driver Gareth Evans who progressed from driving his roadgoing Griffith and Cerbera to racing against TVR Chairman Peter Wheeler in the TVR Tuscan Challenge. He is now about to take the huge step of racing his own car, prepared by his own team, at Le Mans. Driving alongside him will be TVR Tuscan Challenge champion Michael Caine who is taking time off from his day job selling TVRs in Essex for Castle TVR. Chris Stockton, another Tuscan regular and Bob Berridge are in the Number 89 car alongside Michael while TVR GT regulars Lawrence Tomlinson and Nigel Greensall drive alongside Gareth in the Number 96 car.
TVR will be there as a factory, helping behind the scenes in the pits, and cheering raucously from their display area at Maison Blanche, where staff from the TVR factory and some of their dealers will be on hand to explain the finer points of the new Tuscan 2 and Sagaris that have been transported straight from their debuts at the Birmingham Motor show, which has only just ended. The latest news from the pits will be available down there and drivers will be dropping by from time to time to keep everyone up to speed. All those down at Le Mans will be welcome to come and have a chat and we will be keeping those less fortunate up to date via this web news service.
