Funny you should say that about TVRs, the one I just got from out Shelfy's way came off the ramps today with a very loud squeal of the tires (in reverse that is). I called a few locals and informed them that I think I might have found my deathmobile since my vintage motorcycle habit haven't done me in maybe a torque monster TVR (even a 280i) just might. I shutter to think what a 600+ hp modern TVR would be like! Can you start mailing me one in pieces please?
