Chevron GR8 Challenge
Hi Everyone,
Just thought you would be interested to hear Chevron Racing Cars Ltd will be running a new Racing Car series together with the BARC in 2010 called the Chevron GR8 Challenge. A Chevron B8 styled car with a V8 engine for all you TVR Tuscan racers who are pining away! It will have a two sprint race format for seniors 28yrs+ & juniors 17-28yrs with individual & team scores to count. Hope you like the idea. |

More details about the car? Do you have something like an artist impression?
Curious about the way B8 classic lines can be re-interpreted some 40 years later. Good luck, anyway! |

Chevron Racing Cars Ltd. website claims to make Chevron B8s from teh original steel, using the old style welding...
So I bet it's a B8 with a V8... |

Whilst only 7 cars were racing yesterday (out of a reported 10 built so far) they look great and what I saw of the racing they were looking good, Hope they manage to build up to a full grid as that would be something to see and hear
